These tapestries are known as cabbage leaves or aristolocha leaves although the name cabbage leaf is incorrect as they are more like acanthus leaves. The broad-leaved green tapestry has introduced a not only three-dimensional but also naturalistic aspect. This aspect is reinforced by the introduction of birds and occasionally mythological animals but more rarely human figures. The predominant vision is that of an untamed nature that man has not yet disturbed; an image that is both fascinating and threatening and undoubtedly emblematic of the Garden of Eden.
