Description
Archery and rope jumping Tapestry from the Royal Aubusson Manufactory (Manufacture's initials in the lower right-hand corner of the tapestry: M.R.D.B.) part of the "Amusements champêtres" hanging Based on designs by Jacques Nicolas Juillard (1719 - 1790) 18th century, circa 1770 252 x 224 cm Material and condition : Woven in wool and silk, the colours are still vivid, but there are accidents and old restorations in the silks. The tapestry was probably created without a border in order to be inserted into a woodwork frame. The maker's mark is in the body of the tapestry as it could not have been on the border. Related tapestry: The Art Institute of Chicago has a similar tapestry, reproduced in the catalogue by Koen Brosens, European tapestries in the Art Institute of Chicago, 2008, N° 51, pp 304 - 306 (card by Pascal-François Bertrand).
