c.1810. This early nineteenth century silk tapestry design has an acanthus leaf motif that was popular in fabrics of this period. The plump leaves bloom in rich colours from the sh ining ground, appearing almost edible. A brocatelle rather than a damask, the ground is created by the weft, so that the acanthus grows delightfully upwards towards the eye.
