A village wedding fills the cloth. The couple is raised at the centre, guests in patterned dresses and shawls press in around them, and doves wheel overhead above the rooftops.
- Size: 147 x 132 cm (58 x 52 in)
- Material: handwoven wool
- Dye: Coloured with natural plant dyes
- Signature: Signed by the artist in the weave
- One of a kind: woven freehand with no sketch or cartoon behind the warp, so no second copy exists. The photographs show this exact piece.
Square and compact, it works above a console, in a study, or as the focal point of an entryway.
Hanging: the tapestry arrives without a sleeve or rod pocket. The simplest method is hook-and-loop tape sewn along the top edge, with the matching half fixed to a wooden batten on the wall. A clip rail also works, or a tailor can sew on a casing for a rod.
