Return from Faerie has been on shown Chester and Swansea. A literary tale brought to life by medieval work in sumptuous colours.
It is a large romantic piece, inspired by medieval minatures from "Books of Hours."
The kioght returns from his exploits wondering what has happened in his absence. The swan represents romance.
The two borders of roses and heraldic devices in elegant needlework enliven and illumonate the piece.
