Tapestry The Motive of Fertility
This week! Discover examples of tapestry and ceramic art from the museum's collection on the topic of fertility.
Tapestry The Motive of Fertility by the artist Pavel Kuzmenko.
The colors of the tapestry, which has a lyrical and decorative solution, are not only harmonious but also have a symbolic meaning. The dark brown background represents fertile soil. The vertical stripes on it represent branches with green and golden leaves. A large fertile fruit tree adorns the tapestry’s center. Gracefully portrayed boy and girl pick the fruits from the tree. The fringes of the tapestry create an unusual look complementing characters’ costumes.
