78461 Antique French Scandinavian Verdure Tapestry Handwoven in Sweden, 04’01 x 06’09. Emanating timeless style with incredible detail and texture, this handwoven wool antique verdure tapestry is a captivating vision of woven beauty. The idyllic pastoral scene and soft earthy colorway woven into this piece work together creating a look of true Old World charm. The antique verdure wall hanging depicts a peaceful wooded landscape with dense green vegetation. Nestled among the trees are a couple of exotic birds. A horizontal floral border runs along the top and bottom creating a lush enclosure and a refreshing finish to a formal composition. The pastel earth-tone colors join to create a truly compelling dance, and inaudibly speak with a timeless voice that is characterized by sensual decadence, as well as by stately action. All facets of this piece collectively entwine to form the striking and grand charm of a textile that is worthy to depict the tender, emotive, and vibrant details of humans and histories, no longer known.
Rendered in variegated shades of greens, browns, blues, yellows, grays, purples and oranges with other soft earth-tone tcolors.
