The design includes vertical tree forms, clustered foliage, and a softly layered landscape that creates depth across the surface.

The palette is subdued and earthy, with tones of muted olive, warm brown, Taupe, beige, and faded green, all softened through centuries of age. The composition retains its structure despite wear, offering a quiet, atmospheric presence.

The tapestry weave is dense and textured, consistent with traditional Flemish craftsmanship. Condition is good for its age, showing expected wear including fading, minor thinning, and surface abrasions. The textile has been professionally constructed into a pillow while preserving the integrity of the original antique fabric. See less
