Another masterful design, the Vineyard carpet is a fairly dense, complex
composition. Any sense of heaviness, however, is banished by the complex
rhythms that Voysey establishes, again further enhanced by our artists'
placement of colour in the field. There is vertical, horizontal and
diagonal repetition in the field which creates a sense of movement and
life. As with all of Voysey's work, this carpet shows his great
understanding of, and equal delight in, the natural world.
