La Petite Maison

This gorgeous tapestry shows a classic Belgian verdure scene of forest and foliage, with a little house in the background. The delightful style of the Belgian and French verdures are shown here with the characteristic attention to the gradations of color in the foliage, leaves and branches of the natural elements, going from golden yellows, to emerald greens to the sophisticated blue greens. There is detail and character everywhere in this piece as we see a scene of the Flemish countryside of a flowing river, leading to the distant hills beyond with flowers punctuating the scene. This tapestry is in vertical aspect ratio of the portiere style, used in castles to match the shape and sizes of their doors, which can create an effect of a gallery piece when hung on a wall. This La Petite Maison tapestry is backed with a lining and has a tunnel for easy hanging.
