About the Item
A charming French 19th century verdure-style tapestry depicting a lush, pastoral scene where spring flowers bloom, lambs graze in fields while their shepherd rests, and a sly fox wearing a red robe observes from a distance. The central field uses a soft palette–mostly greens–to represent the rolling hills of this fertile landscape, where a modest farmhouse is seen along the treeline. The tapestry is bordered in a repeating pattern of gold acanthus leaves which unfurl over a background of salmon pink. This stunning textile is stretched and mounted on a wooden frame to hang on a wall to make an enormous impact on your room or space. Impressively sized, it draws the viewer into a wooded wonderland that prompts new traditions in retelling classic fables. This tapestry may be based on Le Petit Chaperon Rouge, the precursor to Little Red Riding Hood, originally written in France in the 17th century, perpetuating the allegorical figure of Reynard, a devious fox character with origins in the Middle Ages. Take some time to view the detailed images to see the current condition of the tapestry and wonder at its artistry and finer points.
