This was the first tapestry to be designed by John Dearle (1860-1932) who later became Morris & Company's
chief textile designer. Dearle and others worked on the Fox & Pheasant during the Royal Jubilee Exhibition held
in Manchester in 1887. The tapestry was finished in 1888 and subsequently bought for the Whitworth Art Gallery
in Manchester, where it remains today.
This tapestry is no longer available as a machine loomed tapestry. We will be happy to quote a
price for hand looming this for you.
