About the Item

Tapestry/wall decoration woven in Flemish technique, depicting an outdoor scene with people and trees in shades of green, red, and yellow against a brown-black background. Wool yarn in weft, linen in warp. Fitted on a wooden panel. Overall, it is in good condition, with some wear to the fringes. Dimensions: 70x44cm [30,31 x 17,32 in.] Flemish fabric actually means fabric from Flanders, but it has become synonymous with the weaving technique used. It is a simplified tapestry technique. Flemish fabrics have been used for cushions for chairs, benches, and carriages by wealthy people, preferably in southern Sweden. The elements are picked up and create soft contour lines but simultaneously sharp transitions between the colors. The weaving is often performed in a special flame loom in a standing position, with a vertical warp that can be rolled down, but in Blekinge a horizontal warp has been used. For smaller Flemish fabrics, a simpler weave frame can be used in a horizontal position.

1960's Egyptian Flatweave Carpet with Modern Style
By Ramses Wissa Wassef Workshop
Located in Dallas, TX
79103 Vintage Egyptian Kilim Tapestry Rug, 02'02 x 03'04. This exquisite handwoven wool Egyptian pictorial tapestry rug is a striking representation of traditional life and pastoral scenes that resonate with cultural depth and artistic expression. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the flatweave rug showcases a variety of animals commonly found in the rural landscapes of Egypt. Depicted are camels and goats, each rendered in natural, earthy tones that speak to the organic dyes derived from the region's abundant natural resources. The inclusion of a human figure, possibly a shepherd, anchors the composition in human experience, bridging the gap between nature and civilization. The background of the tapestry is a rich, textured gray (greenish undertones), representing the fertile grounds of the Nile Valley, which has historically been the lifeblood of Egyptian agriculture and rural life. This backdrop serves as a vivid canvas that highlights the vibrant hues of the animals, lending a sense of vitality and movement to the scene. Each animal is colored distinctively, allowing their individual forms to stand out, while also harmonizing with the overall palette to create a cohesive visual narrative. This vintage Egyptian tapestry...
