About the Item
This exquisite Gobelin tapestry, titled “Landscape with Peacocks,” is a captivating example of late-17th-century European textile artistry. Woven with remarkable finesse, it presents a richly atmospheric pastoral scene in which nature unfolds with both grandeur and serenity. Lush, deeply layered foliage frames the composition, guiding the viewer’s gaze toward an idyllic river landscape and a distant architectural vista bathed in gentle light. Among the trees, vibrant birds—including a striking pair of peacocks—introduce a sense of elegance and quiet nobility, their plumage accentuated by subtle tonal shading and textural depth.
The tapestry’s palette is composed of warm ochres, deep greens, earthy browns and muted blues, all softened by the graceful patina that only centuries of careful preservation can create. The elaborate border, decorated with classic scrollwork and ornamental detailing, enhances the piece’s stately presence and underlines its historical importance. Despite its age, the work retains a harmonious balance of colour and composition, offering an impressive visual impact suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
As a genuine textile from the 17th century, this Gobelin tapestry embodies the craftsmanship, artistic sophistication and narrative beauty that defined the great weaving ateliers of its time. It is not merely a decorative object, but a distinguished historical artefact that brings depth, personality and cultural resonance to any refined collection.
