Wolterton Verdure (Without Figures) Tableaux Sceniques

Wolterton Verdure (Without Figures)

Design Provenance: Mid-17th Century, a suite of five Soho or Antwerp tapestries, Private Collection of Wolterton Hall Wolterton Hall is home to a suite of five fine Verdure tapestries, brought to the hall by Horatio Walpole in the mid 18th century. Depicting the mythological love story of Venus and Adonis, the suite portrays the Goddess Venus’s attempts to seduce a handsome but reluctant young man, an illustrious narrative made famous by William Shakespeare in his 1593 poem of the same name. A gentle, elegant substrate, our linen Tableaux Scéniques make wonderfully relaxed drapery and domestic upholstery. Faithfully conveying the vibrant colourings of the design, our linens retain the graceful and natural variations organic to the textile.

Artwork

Watts has been associated with tapestry throughout its long and decorative history, but the idea to further develop this art came about much more recently when we were invited to collaborate with la Cite Internationale de la Tapisserie in Aubusson. In addition to the Aubusson archive we are fortunate to have been given the intellectual property rights to other magnificent pieces from private collections.

Wolterton Verdure Parched Tuscany

Our Studio skilfully redraw trees and figures and mountains and temples and develop a narrative mural that is unique to your home.

The entrance hall illustrated is over six metres high, floor to ceiling, and required extensive artwork to extend the tree line. Further customisation included the addition of two horses, appropriately styled in a manner typical of the seventeenth century. We also re-introduced the original floral border adding a sweet decorative detail ‘underpinning’ the strength and scale of the foliage.
