Morris Peacock Tapestry

The design for the Peacock Tapestry is from 'The Forest Tapestry', one of the finest collaborative tapestries designed by William Morris in which he coordinated the talents of his associates. The peacock itself was designed by Philip Web, based on a charming series of drawings, and incorporated by Morris into a background of swirling acanthus leaves, in the style of his first tapestry, 'Vine and Acanthus' (1879). The details in the foreground were added by J H Dearle. This tapestry is fully lined incorporating a rod pocket for easy hanging with English Heritage hanging rods.
