Scandinavian & Traditional Tapestries & Hangings

William Morris' use of birds and animals in his early tapestries is a forebear to his later carpet patterns. This home decor design, one of his most successful compositions, uses a dense cover of trailing acanthus leaves, as seen in his first tapestry 'Acanthus and Vine', into which have been placed Philip Webb's five studies of animals and birds. It is possible that Henry Dearle supplied foreground floral details, although these are similar to Webb's preparatory drawings. The wall-hanging verse was later published under the title 'The Lion' in Morris's Poems By the Way. British Art and Crafts Movement.

Lady with Fan, also known as the woman with the fan was painted by Gustav Klimt in 1917. The Lady wears a kimono and fan in the Japanese style, and figures reminiscent of oriental tapestry grace the perspectiveless background in a wall tapestry. Klimt’s work borrows heavily from the Symbolist, Impressionist, and Art Nouveau movements, and all of those influences can be seen in Lady with Fan. The extensive use of golds, greens, and reds in this piece and the highly stylized background give it a much sharper feel than most Nouveau works, which tend toward flowing naturalism and wall art ideas. Art Nouveau Design.

It has long been called View of Oyster Bay, however, because the scene so closely resembles views from the north shore of Long Island, New York, where Tiffany built his grand country estate Laurelton Hall between 1902 and 1905. In 1978, Hugh and Jeannette McKean gave the loggia from Laurelton Hall to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York for installation in the light-filled space of the American Wing’s Charles Engelhard Court. At the same time, the McKeans made an extended loan of View of Oyster Bay to the Metropolitan. For almost thirty years, both the Laurelton Hall loggia and this masterfully crafted landscape window have been exhibited together and viewed by millions of appreciative visitors. Today, while the Metropolitan undertakes major renovations of the Charles Engelhard Court, we at the Morse are pleased to present View of Oyster Bay to our Winter Park visitors.
