Tapestry / 10224

This Tapestry is a compact wool panel, 124 x 130 cm, composed around a central figural scene and a surrounding floral border. The colour range is warm terracotta and cream with soft grey-blue and green accents; tonal abrash and moderate wear give the painted figures a softened, weathered character. The floral garland that frames the scene remains legible, its leaves and roses rendered with careful shading. Read as an antique rug of refined pictorial intent, the piece balances pastoral narrative and decorative border work with a quietly tactile surface and evident age. Circa 1875 - 1925
