Antique Belgian Tapestry Tree of Life Portiere

An exquisite Tree of Life Portiere tapestry, a masterpiece inspired by the enduring legacy of the renowned artist William Morris (British - 24 March 1834 – 3 October 1896). Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this tapestry, designed after Morris in 1879, stands as a resplendent revival of the time-honored tapestry weaving technique.
Drawing from Morris' artistic brilliance, the tapestry showcases his iconic "mille-fleurs" motif, a celebration of myriad blooms intricately woven to create a mesmerizing tapestry of nature's abundance. At the heart of this composition is the Tree of Life, a mystical concept that transcends folklore, culture, and fiction, often symbolizing immortality and the interconnectedness of all living things.
Imbued with historical significance, this tapestry is jacquard woven in Belgium. The meticulous artistry is complemented by thoughtful features, including a lined backing for durability, a convenient rod tunnel for easy hanging, and a composition of Cotton for a luxurious feel.
