A Patterned Egg Swinging Between Two Trees
An oversized Easter egg lies tilted in a fabric hammock whose ends are wrapped with rope around two slim tree trunks. The egg is decorated in bands, with wavy lines alternating with rows of round dots from top to bottom. Leafy twigs arch overhead from both trees and frame the scene. Below the hammock, a closed tulip grows on the left and a daffodil with a frilly trumpet blooms on the right, both surrounded by long leaves and tufts of grass.
Egg Decorating and Hammocks Around the World
Decorating eggs in spring is a very old custom, and eggs have long been a symbol of new life. In Ukraine, artists make pysanky with a wax-resist method: they draw lines in melted beeswax, dip the egg in dye, add more wax and repeat from the lightest color to the darkest before melting the wax away to reveal the pattern. The most famous decorated eggs of all are the jeweled Faberge eggs, the first of which was made in 1885 as an Easter gift from Tsar Alexander III to his wife.
Hammocks were used in the Americas long before they reached Europe. The word comes from the Spanish hamaca, borrowed from the Taino people of the Caribbean, whose woven sleeping nets amazed the crews of Christopher Columbus.
