Drawn from William Morris's work "The Forest," the jacquard composition presents a magnificent representation of peacock imagery that remains inseparably linked in cultural imagination to medieval feast traditions and aristocratic dining customs. Until the 17th century, peacocks continued to be considered a choice delicacy on European tables, where these ornamental birds served both culinary and ceremonial purposes that demonstrated wealth and sophistication. Available in two portrait formats - 67 x 50 cm and 100 x 75 cm - the piece showcases Morris's integration of natural observation with historical cultural references that characterized his approach to decorative design. The peacock imagery reflects Morris's fascination with medieval artistic traditions while demonstrating his acute awareness of how animals functioned within both natural ecosystems and human cultural systems. Woven from 72% cotton, 25% viscose, and 3% polyester with cotton lining, the work preserves Morris's distinctive approach to combining naturalistic detail with decorative sophistication that made his designs revolutionary within Victorian artistic culture. The composition appeals to collectors of Morris's work and medieval culture enthusiasts who appreciate how the Arts and Crafts movement revived historical subject matter while establishing new standards for decorative arts that celebrated both natural beauty and cultural heritage through sophisticated artistic interpretation.
