This exotic tapestry is inspired by a series called Retour des Indes, created in the 1700's.Many people in England and Europe were starting to explore the world. What used to be called the Punjab region in India was full of jungles, sand, wildlife and adventure. Imagine being one of the first English people to see an elephant!
The rich look and feel of this wall hanging reflects the "Carpe Diem" spirit that spread in this time period. The colors in this tapestry are many and varied. There is an overcast of gold that really makes the tapestry stand out from other designs. The golden brown shades vary from a light, almost sand shade to a darker camel tone. The greens vary between a soft blue green, to a moss shade, to a dark sage.
This exotic tapestry is woven in France from a cotton and viscose blend. It comes backed with a lining and a tunnel for hassle-free hanging.
Paysage du Punjab comes in three sizes to choose from: H 27 x W 34 inches, H 46 x W 56 inches, and H 56 x W 72 inches.
