19th Century Italian Sucre de Herb Tapestry features a shapely maiden dancing and playing a tambourine, while a leering Bacchus admires her in the background. Artistically hand-painted on fabric as opposed to woven using colored thread, Sucre de Herb tapestries are more immersive and full of life like a scene on painted canvas would be, yet required incredible talent in dealing with the colors and absorption rate of the fabric.
Circa 1890s
