From the collection of Jane Beck.
Welsh textiles tell a story of people and place, material and means of production, through rich colour and pattern.
Explore the history of the Welsh woollen industry through eight tapestries, including a rare example of a hand-woven, raw cotton and wool bed cover dyed with Indigo, woven in North Wales c. 1830, and a selection of vibrant commemorative blankets.
Part of a new programme in partnership with Lancaster Institute for the Contemporary Arts, connecting Ruskin’s ideas to other artists, designers and makers, in his time and our own.
