About the Item
A late 19th-century French tapestry, hand-woven in wool. Rendered in a tonal palette of ochre and sepia, the piece evokes a quiet grandeur—naturalistic yet idealized, with a painterly sense of depth and atmosphere.
At its center, a pair of storks nestles among oversized leaves, framed by towering oaks and fleeting glimpses of a tranquil landscape beyond. The forest canopy is dense and enveloping, the undergrowth alive with soft detail. A richly detailed border of scrolling vines and florals encloses the scene in rhythmic symmetry.
Earthy, romantic, and richly textured, this textile is a window onto the pastoral imagination of Belle Époque France—majestic yet intimate in tone. Narrow in proportion—just 48.75 inches across—it offers the impact of a mural with far greater ease of placement, ideal as a statement wall piece or soft architectural anchor.
Condition: In great condition, with a few areas of light wear and fraying along the edges, as shown in photos. Minor residue along the interior edges. Hooks or hanging hardware are not included. Backing is in tact.
