Dramatic mid 19th Century English Needlepoint ~
7'7'' x 16'3''
English needlepoint rugs, renowned for their profuse floral motifs, reached an artistic zenith in 1700-1750 but were produced through the end of the nineteenth century. Needlepoint rugs were mainly used as table carpets, the earliest pieces, dating from 1550-1650, exhibited scrolls of flowers with pictorial and heraldic motifs. Eighteenth-century needlepoint rugs reveal the influence of contemporary artistic movements including baroque, chinoiserie, neoclassical, and rococo.
