A recent book about Frank Lloyd Wright's famous "Fallingwater House" implies that the painting itself is an allegory, using the difficult construction techniques necessary for that work of architecture as a symbol for the work involved in the postwar rebuilding process, thus evoking the concept of "Hope for the future through collective labor." The tall tower at the left of the painting resembles a section of the actual "Fallingwater house" itself, and the rock in the center, although it does not resemble it, could symbolize the cliffs to which the cantilevered sections of the house are anchored. The artist had previously done a portrait of Mrs. Kaufman for the family, so although there is no evidence that Mr. Kaufman commissioned it, the likelihood is that Blume painted it in the hope that the family would eventually purchase it for inclusion among the many other works of modern art that are featured in the home. For further information, I would refer you to the book itself.

Where was the bayeux tapestry found?
It is presently exhibited in a special museum in Bayeux, Normandy, France - where I went to see it for myself. Since the earliest known written reference to the tapestry is a 1476 inventory of Bayeux Cathedral, its origins have been the subject of much speculation and controversy. French legend maintained the tapestry was commissioned and created by Queen Matilda, William the Conqueror's wife, and her ladies-in-waiting. Indeed, in France it is occasionally known as "La Tapisserie de la Reine Mathilde" (Tapestry of Queen Matilda). However, scholarly analysis in the 20th century shows it probably was commissioned by William's half brother, Biship Odo. The reasons for the Odo commission theory include: 1) three of the bishop's followers mentioned in Doomsday Book appear on the tapestry; 2) it was found in Bayeux Cathedral, built by Odo; and 3) it may have been commissioned at the same time as the cathedral's construction in the 1070s, possibly completed by 1077 in time for display on the cathedral's dedication. Assuming Odo commissioned the tapestry, it was probably designed and constructed in England by Anglo-Saxon aritists given that Odo's main power base was in Kent, the Latin text contains hints of Anglo Saxon, other embroideries originate from England at this time, and the vegetable dyes can be found in cloth traditionally woven there. Assuming this was the case, the actual physical work of stitching was most likely undertaken by skilled seamsters. Anglo-Saxon needlework, was famous across Europe.
