An exceptionally fine Georgian embroidery by Anne Salmon depicting 'Cheerful Voyagers' punting in the serene English countryside. Executed with remarkable skill, the artist has rendered this idyllic scene with meticulous attention to detail, using varied thicknesses of thread. Signed, dated and inscribed verso. Beautifully presented in a gilt oval frame with delicate beading. On silk.
Condition
The condition is typical for an embroidery of this age, including discolouration and light staining to the silk. There is a small hole to the upper left, which has been lined. The frame shows signs of wear consistent with age, including scuffs and losses along the edges.
