5 ft. 3 in. Given in 1915 by T. B. Clarke-Thornhill, Esq. Neg. No. 44683.
T. 61 1915. Curtain, in three panels, of loosely woven linen (etamine), embroidered with coloured silks. The pattern consists of blossoms springing from foliations of various shapes. It is disposed in each panel as follows : a rectangular compartment at either end, from beside which rises a border of foliations alternating with blossoms, along the sides of the panel ; the rest of the pattern is symmetrically grouped so as... to compose a row of four medallions. The foliations are mauve, which is the dominant colour of this embroidery and, for the most part, outlines the blossoms ; the latter are white, yellow, pink, salmon-colour, green, and light blue. Each of the side panels is united to the central one by a band com- posed of 13 strips of silk ribbon stitched together; the middle strip has a woven pattern of small floral sprays, between borders of chevron pattern, in colours on a green ground ; six ribbons, narrower than the middle strip, but not of uniform width, are arranged on either side of the latter, in the following order of colours : salmon-colour, yellow, purple, cream-colour, and light blue.
