Bedlington In Red

A vibrant wool pile tapestry by Craigie Aitchison depicting a Bedlington Terrier set against a bold, saturated red background. The work showcases Aitchison's signature use of flat, intense colour and simplified forms, translating his distinctive painting style into the rich texture of woven wool. The pale, lamb-like silhouette of the dog emerges with quiet elegance against the striking crimson field, creating a powerful yet tender composition.
