Below them on a large wall space in the hall was to be a great ship carrying the Greek heroes. It was designed, as the rest of the Troy series were also to have been, in a frankly mediae- val spirit ; a warship indeed of the fourteenth cen- tury, with the shields of the kings hung over the bulwarks. Round the drawing-room, at a height of about five feet from the floor, was to be a con- tinuous belt of pictures, the subjects of which were scenes from the fifteenth-century English romance of ' Si...r Degrevaunt.' Three of them were exe- cuted by Burne-Jones, and remain on the walls now. Below them the wall was to have been covered with magnificent embroidered hangings. The princi- pal bedroom was hung with indigo-dyed blue serge with a pattern of flowers worked on it in bright- colored wools. For the dining-room embroidered hangings of a much more elaborate and splendid nature were designed and partly executed, in a scheme of design like those of his later tapestries when he revived the art of tapestry-weaving, of twelve figures with trees between and above them, and a belt of flowers running below their feet.
