Little Greene - Millefleur - Knight - Wallpaper
Millefleur’ (Montacute House) c.1478 The floral detail in this design is drawn directly from an incredibly rare, important and lovingly-conserved object, the oldest tapestry in the care of the National Trust. Residing at Montacute House in Somerset, the 10m2 piece is woven from wool and silk and depicts a knight against backdrop of hundreds of tiny flowers on a dark background. It was made in the 15th century as part of a much larger set, and given by the city of Tournai, in Belgium, to Jean de Daillon, a French nobleman and Governor of Dauphine.
