About the Item
Handwoven in wool and originating from France, this 2x11 French Gobelins pictorial tapestry from the early 18th Century is a rare and special new curation from Rug
Kilim—"Mois Grotesques" by Claude Audran le Jeune.
On the Design:
This vertical panel represents a twin piece from the same "Mois Grotesques" series designed by Claude Audran le Jeune (1708-1709) for the Gobelins manufactory. The design maintains the structured vertical format with compartmentalized ornamental sections on a golden-yellow ground characteristic of the series. This panel features a central mythological figure—likely representing one of the Olympian deities associated with a specific month—seated within an architectural baldaquin or niche with draped fabric elements.
The design demonstrates the refined Régence aesthetic that bridged Louis XIV and Louis XV decorative styles, with precisely rendered grotesque ornamentation including acanthus scrolls, foliate garlands, and mythological vignettes organized in vertical progression. The medallion structure in the lower portion contains a secondary allegorical scene framed within an oval cartouche. The colorway employs the same burgundy-aubergine palette against the golden ground as its companion piece, maintaining visual cohesion within the series. This panel exemplifies the exceptional technical achievement of Gobelins weavers during this period, when designs likely involved collaboration between Audran, the young Antoine Watteau, and Alexandre-François Desportes for figural elements.
Condition:
This antique French tapestry further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—intended for use in wall-hanging projects only.
