Notice of Item Offered:  Auction Has Started!

Offered: Large Verdure Tapestry that evokes a sense of calm peaceful country life another time with a border and an idyllic landscape of verdant foliage with running streams with a heron on bottom right as well as a bird of paradise perching on a branch on the upper left.  Above the Heron is a stone bridge with brisk water running underneath and to the left is another bridge of wood and above a cathedral  and to the right a castle and then a small town with a mountain range above all surrounded in lush grass flowers and tree trunks and branches with a plethora of leaves. 18th Century 
  
Measures 75" x 54" [6.25' X 4.5'] {190.5 X 137.16 cm} wool with silk backing and rod tunnels on top and bottom .  On upper ridge there are indentations and some residual rust from an attempt to keep the tapestry level  as it was original incased in a massive inclosed box frame for untold decades for viewing which is much better than original photograph and in otherwise exceptional condition.
