A continuous aluminium weight stabilization bar is sewn into the bottom of the tapestry to keep the tapestry straight when hung.*

Additional Info: Hylas and the Nymphs wall hanging is developed from an 1896 oil painting by John Waterhouse and is produced by a process of heat sublimation over a woven background to imitate woven tapestry. The scene is inspired by the Greek and Roman mythology of Hylas, a companion of Hercules and both Argonauts in search of the Golden Fleece with Jason on his ship the Argo. The tragic Hylas was sent to find fresh drinking water where Hylas found a pond occupied by Naiads (female water nymphs). Hylas became infatuated by the beautiful Naiads who lured Hylas into the water where he disappeared forever.
