Hearth Screen
The Nederlands Openluchtmuseum in Arnhem, Gelderland, the Netherlands, houses an embroidered hearth screen, somewhat in Biedermeier-style, which was used in the summer to hide the place where during the winter the hearth would be lit. The screen was made on the occasion of the marriage between Dirk Bezemer (1867-1938) and Dirkje Nolman (1869-1938) on 5 August 1891 in Delft, the Netherlands.
