This tapestry is also known as The Garden and is from an embroidered wool portiere designed by John Henry Dearle (1860-1932), an associate of William Morris (1834-1896) who worked very closely with him for many years. This piece was produced around 1910 by the firm of Morris & Company, the firm originally established by William Morris at Merton Abbey, Surrey. From studying an old French Arts and Crafts manual, Morris taught himself the technique of weaving, and thereafter taught his workmen the technique, and is thereby attributed with reviving the craft of tapestry-weaving in England during the last quarter of the 19th century.
