The National Trust Textile Conservation Studio has recently conserved a 17th century tapestry from Cotehele, a National Trust property in Cornwall. Figure 1 shows the tapestry in situ in the King Charles room before removal for conservation. As you can see, the bottom right corner of the tapestry is in a particularly poor condition and is made up of a series of patches. In this paper, we will discuss the use of a printed photographic patch to reinstate this area of the design, in order to help visitors see the tapestry as a whole without distraction. The tapestry is English and made by Mortlake sometime between 1670 and 1680. It is from a series depicting the Greek myth of Hero and Leander and shows Leander swimming the Hellespont. It would originally have been one of a set of six tapestries in the series designed by Francis Cleyn. Only three from the series remain at Cotehele and it is not known how many from the series were acquired by the property or when.
