The International Exhibition - floral carpet, by J. Templeton and Co... 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition - floral carpet, by J. Templeton and Co. of Glasgow and London, 1862. The carpet which we engrave may fairly be said to be one of the finest examples of its class occurring in the entire exhibition. Its general freshness, the freeness of the flowers, the judicious disposition of the parts, and the delicacy of the colours, all contribute to its excellence. The border is somewhat set, yet it is broken by small panels filled with flowers, and this is linked to an inner border which is large and free in character, festoons of flowers being entwined amidst the scrollwork: then we have a portion of diapered dark ground, joining the light ground of the centre portion, which is lavishly bestrewed with flowers. This carpet has a special merit shining conspicuously forth: while there are many small parts it is clearly formed into primary, secondary, and tertiary masses, and the small work only furnishes the enrichment for close inspection. This carpet only represents one style in which Messrs Templeton and Co. have exhibited; yet their display is of a richly-varied character, and no firm which exhibits in this department has a richer or more beautiful show, or works of a more exalted character'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862
