“A Valentine's window from 1959. The knitted heart was made of red
yarn.”
Obviously this was
meant for the valentine’s holiday. In my point of view, this display is
describing the one self-knitting its own heart during these holidays. But
putting myself in Moor’s shoes, he was going for advertising the red yarn, as
described in the quote under the picture. The red yarn is representing the
quality and color that Tiffany’s was going for in that period of time. Moore’s
work here was very symbolic, but others that would of not understood his work,
they took it literal, just like I did when I first saw this picture.
