Decoration, girl and boy picking mushrooms

A cute little canvas portraying a girl and a boy picking mushrooms in the woods.

Embroidered with the long stitch technique, a simple cross stitch that is worked vertically across a canvas to produce a colourful wave-like design. Ready to be framed and hanged on a wall, still it carries a mystery: what can "Nordiska 1391" mean? The probable answer is that the base of the canvas was bought at "Nordiska Textigarner", a yarn shop in the region of Västergötland founded in 1963. The number could be the reference of the canvas base.

Estimated time: 1970's, as the long stitch technique was very popular then.

Size:  26x26 cm / 10.2x10.2 in.

Condition: stains on the white bottom part.
