This magnificent tapestry known as “Awaiting Sail” will evoke an instant response in everyone.The scene of the tapestry will transport one to a world of open skies and the endless expanse of water and will make one yearn for the sea. The boat in the foreground of the tapestry, with the dominant masthead and the suggestion of fluttering sails, as yet unfurled, seems to promise a voyage into a calm and relaxed peace. The boat, poised to sail, seems to convey the eventual fulfillment of even the simplest of dreams. The billowing clouds, now golden, now brooding and black, look glorious against the blue of the skies. The still waters, with scarcely a ripple, belie the strength of the current beneath. This tapestry will look superb on any wall and will make the room echo with the call of the sea.
The “Awaiting Sail” tapestry is woven in North America from a painting by Bansemer. It measures 44 X 33 inches. The tapestry comes lined with a tunnel for easy hanging.
