Up for sale is a vintage hand embroidered needlepoint of “The
Bowden Children” after J. Hoppner (made in France).
It's
completely done by hand with elaborate detailing and vibrant color throughout depicting
the Bowden children in the foreground of a landscape.
It
measures 26 inches by 20 inches with plenty of backing to stretch (for framing)
or upholstery.
This
came from my large collection of needlepoint and upholstery fabrics bought over
many years for my Antique store business. I am now selling because I no longer
own the store. I purchased this piece to upholster the back of an antique chair
that had a tan velvet seat, but the chair sold before I had a chance to do the
work. Make me an Offer!
