Tapestry, Wall Tapestry
by Kristy Annely
Once famed as the queen of arts, wall tapestry is a wonderful artistic achievement available in a wide range of colors and designs. Wall tapestry is characterized by a fine texture which is rarely found in other art forms. In the early days, people used wall tapestry to cover the walls in order to keep the rooms warm. The palaces and castles across Europe were also adorned with these wall tapestries. Early century churches had wall tapestry depicting scenes from the Bible. Wall tapestry was a symbol of prestige and status in aristocratic households.
Wall tapestry typically depicted historical and geographical themes, religious and mythological figures and hunting scenes. In order to create a unique and magnificent piece of wall tapestry, tremendous skill and artistic talent is required. A finer quality of yarn can provide a more intricate design, while at the same time making the fabric more durable. The background, the color of the threads, and the design of each tapestry has to be pre-planned. Wall tapestry history includes Gothic wall hangings, French Baroque and Rococo works from the 17th and 18th centuries, and 19th century William Morris and Pre-Raphaelite art. The wall tapestries in certain countries like India use beads, sequins and mirrors for decoration. Tapestry themes have close links with history, which is one of the reasons for the sustained interest in this art form. Moreover, even for modern homes beautiful wall tapestries can provide enduring charm. Wall tapestries add rich ambiance to a room, as the fabric reduces sound vibrations and enhances acoustical characteristics.
Today, machines, modern yarns and novel techniques are employed in the manufacture of wall tapestry. However, these fall short of the natural appeal and skilful workmanship of hand-woven wall tapestry.
