Description: | A French Rambouillet pictorial tapestry from approximately 1890, portraying a trio of putti at play in a paradisiacal floral setting, with peacocks and other birds in the background, within an interconnecting key design border. This is a replica from a set of the Giochi di Putti, woven after cartoons by Giovanni da Udine for the Medici family in the early 17th century. Printed on wool.
Hanging: The tapestry comes ready for hanging, with linen backing and a strip of hook and loop tape at the top end, which can be connected to the opposite side of the supplied hook and loop tape, which could be tacked to your wall. For those who prefer the use of a tapestry rod, we can add the appropriate size loops to accommodate your needs. We now have a large selection of antique tapestry rods available as well, which we can provide detail upon request.
