Tapestry / 11505

This Tapestry in wool presents a delicate pastoral tableau rendered in a soft cream and warm beige palette with muted rose highlights. Trees and figures articulate a shallow, pictorial landscape that has softened with even abrash and medium surface wear; the edges show gentle fraying and a quiet patina. The weave retains a tactile presence despite the mellowing of colour and form, suggesting long use and careful survival. Circa 1750 - 1795. This antique rug measures 351 x 221 cm and offers a studied, heritage-rich presence as both textile and painted scene.
