Tapestry
A French tapestry depicting in a bucolic atmosphere the first stage in wine making (gathering the grapes before extracting the juice). The workers, or peasants, bring basketful of white grapes and tumble their contents into a big vat, constructed of oak like a wide open barrel. The whole scene is depicted onto the background of a river behind which the village houses scale a wooded hill. The landscape is probably inspired by burgundy, rather than other wine-making regions in France. 5'11 wide x 8' high
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
