The tapestry depicts an abundant and delicately rendered floral arrangement with a whimsical winged rooster at its center. The composition is filled with beautifully detailed flowers in soft shades of ivory, blush pink, burgundy and sage green, arranged in an elegant decorative urn. The rooster, with its striking red crest and outstretched wings, gives the composition a particularly charming and unusual character. The muted taupe-grey background and understated earthy border beautifully complement the soft, refined palette. Finely woven in Aubusson at the beginning of the 20th century, this elegant French tapestry is an exceptional decorative piece, combining the richness of silk with the texture and durability of wool.
