A riverbank crowded with life: a great blossoming tree on the left, geese and fish in the water, and a dense garden of flowering plants, leaves and birds filling every remaining space from edge to edge.
- Size: 191 x 122 cm (75 x 48 in)
- Material: handwoven wool
- Style: Wissa Wassef style
- Dye: Coloured with natural plant dyes
- 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.
Its wide format is made for the wall above a sofa, a bed or a sideboard, where it can run almost the full width of the furniture.
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.
