L'Ombrina Tapestry

A celebration of the Venetian tapestry tradition, this splendid piece is an objet d'art fashioned of refined silk velvet, and assembled on a wooden frame. Part of the Velvet Lagoon Project exhibited at the Venice Biennale, it is superbly painted by hand with natural green and blue pigments and colored pastes, and depicts a shi drum in a mesmerizing sea bottom, enriched with mouth-blown Murano glass details.
