This beautiful picture is by Cash’s, an English ribbon weaving firm since 1846.  Over 100 years ago the Free Trade Bill was passed which put thousands of ribbon weavers out of work and forced them into poverty.  One mill owner began making silk bookmarks and pictures using the same looms and skills needed for ribbon making.  They became popular and collectible are today still sought out for their unique beauty.

The scene is titled "The Chase" depicting a classic English fox hunt with riders dressed in red coats upon horses and various hounds at their sides.  Stunning detail.
