Description:

A Brussels historical tapestry from the 17th century, featuring a Roman scene in which Julius Caesar sits astride his steed at center after having returned triumphantly from battle.  His supporters flank him at left and right, with one sounding the horn for his return, and another holding the SPQR standard aloft.  Enclosed within alternating borders of flowering elements at top and bottom, and Roman columns at left and right.  Wool with silk inlay.

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.
