ABOUT PRODUCTID 35096
This textile tapestry by Danish artist Rita Mortensen, created in the late 1990s, measures 106.5 × 49.5 cm and features a vertical composition crafted from carefully cut and sewn cotton and synthetic fabrics. The central panel depicts a stylised floral motif—likely an iris—set against a richly textured background in deep, naturalistic greens: forest, olive, and moss, with accents of yellow, cream, brown, turquoise, and blue. The painterly, speckled effect of the background adds visual depth, while the interplay of matte and satin textiles creates a subtle contrast of textures. The piece is stretched over a wooden frame and bordered with a simple, narrow wooden strip in a warm, natural tone. The tapestry is signed by the artist in embroidery at the bottom. It is preserved in very good condition, showing only minimal patina and no damage or repairs. This textile artwork evokes the calm and restraint characteristic of Scandinavian minimalism of the 1990s. The composition tells a story of harmony with nature and an attentive approach to material—organic forms and a subdued colour palette conjure images of misty Nordic mornings and moments of quiet contemplation. Each stitched fabric element speaks to a time when handcraft met modern artistic sensibility. The tapestry seems to whisper of daily life flowing slowly, inviting focus on detail. The Mortensen tapestry can be displayed in a living room, reading nook, or home library, where its vertical format will emphasise the height of the wall and introduce a soft, textile accent. It may be paired with light wood furniture, minimalist lamps with organic shapes, or ceramics in muted colours. Interiors in the spirit of Scandinavian modernism, japandi, or contemporary minimalism will provide
