Tapestry / 11395

A wool Tapestry that reads as a small narrative panel, its figural centre set against a folded drapery and table. The restrained palette of neutral, brown and red has mellowed with medium wear, producing a soft abrash and a painterly surface texture. Floral and architectural motifs form a deep border that frames the scene; edges show expected rubbing and gentle pile loss. The panel measures 168 x 244 cm and retains a quiet compositional clarity despite its age. Circa 1650 - 1700. As an antique rug, it conveys the hand of European tapestry making and a tactile, storied presence.
