Tapestry / 13252

This Tapestry antique rug in wool measures 157 x 168 cm and offers a pictorial composition with two figures, a rustic building, and trees and foliage rendered in a subdued, atmospheric manner. Brown, neutral, and muted gold tones lead the palette, while faded accents and medium distress lend the surface an aged, tactile quietness. A simple border contains the scene without interrupting its painterly flow, letting the imagery remain central. Circa 1850 - 1870, it reads as a textile with depth, restraint, and a distinctly historic character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
