Bidspirit auction | Thai School, A Framed Textile


Thai School, A Framed Textile Depicting Three Temple Horses - This framed textile artwork, rendered in the Thai artistic tradition, depicts a trio of stylised galloping horses. The composition features three horses in profile, shown in a dynamic leaping pose. Each animal is adorned with elaborate ceremonial harnesses and saddlecloths, decorated with intricate motifs characteristic of Southeast Asian design. The piece appears to be a silk embroidery or jacquard-woven panel, utilizing a palette of muted earthy tones, blues, and creams. Fine detailing within the harnesses suggests the use of metallic or silk-wrapped threads for highlight. The textile is mounted behind a wide, grey-green mat and is housed in an ornate gilded frame with a repeating foliate and rope-twist border. No signatures, inscriptions, or makers marks are visible on the face of the artwork.
