Crest On Black II

This contemporary coat of arms tapestry "Crest On Black II" shows two golden lions on a heraldic crest design. The work has a modern tension while taking the symbols of strength and courage as well as royalty from the past. The result is a work that pays homage to the past yet brings the work forward to the present. The color palette is exceptional here as the golds of the lions complement the bright greens of the acanthus leaves and the crimsons of the crown and emblem very well. Detailed in its rendition, the detail of the lions manes and bodies complement the leaf and floral elements strikingly. The balance of light and shade also creates an almost three dimensional feel to the work which makes the piece come alive. This coat of arms tapestry "Crest On Black II" is unlined and has a tunnel for ease of hanging.
