Brief introduction of tapestry

Also known as "tapestry". The raw materials and weaving method are the same as carpet, which is used for indoor wall decoration. China's tapestries have a long history. Since ancient times, Xinjiang, Tibet and Inner Mongolia have been good at weaving tapestries with wool. Tapestry decoration takes landscapes, flowers, birds and animals, figures, architectural scenery and so on. And it can be expressed in the artistic forms such as Chinese painting, oil painting, decorative painting and photography. Large tapestries are mostly used in public places such as auditoriums and clubs, while small tapestries are mostly used in houses and bedrooms. Tapestry is very famous in Tianjin, Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Shanghai, Hebei, Jiangsu and other places.
