A wool pile crafted in a hooked technique, this piece resembles and is undoubtedly inspired by an Edward Hicks painting. An assortment of wild and domesticated animals peacefully congregates, including a quizzical leopard, an amazed sheep, a red bull, a toy tiger, a monkey, and two human figures. Blossoming trees frame the charming menagerie. The three-sided border declares this as a 'peaceable kingdom,' a place where love abides on Earth.
