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.
