Tapestry / 10334

This Tapestry presents a lyrical pastoral scene worked in wool, rendered in muted reds, terracotta and warm browns. A small group of dancing figures inhabits a riverine landscape beneath a dense, overhanging canopy, the composition set within a foliate border. The surface shows medium, even wear with gentle abrash that softens contrast and emphasizes the handwoven texture. Thoughtful shading and restrained palette give the piece a quietly antique rug presence, tactile and painterly. Circa 1880 - 1900. Dimensions: 8' 2" x 6' 0". The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
