. . . "Wall panel of canvas embroidered with wool, silk and silk chenille in tent, Hungarian, stem and canvas stitches with laid and couched work. The ground is covered with silver gilt thread laid and couched in whorls. A series of motifs - genre scenes, vases, putti, portraits and statues - is surrounded by exotic foliage comparable to that found on contemporary French bizarre silk designs. The genre scenes are based on tapestry designs by Teniers. The figure in the lower right corner is based on the Versailles garden statue, L'Huver by Giradon."@en .
