Description
IMPORTANT CUT-OUT PANEL FROM A FINE AUDENARDE (FLANDERS) TAPESTRY, DATED FROM THE LATE 17TH CENTURY. Technical details: Wool and silk. Dimensions: Height: 258cm; 472cm. Beautiful polychromy. Village festival in the woodland. Design based on a drawing by David Teniers. In the middle of a clearing, surrounded by lush woodland and overlooked by hilltop villages, a scene of an engagement banquet unfolds, brought to life by a variety of figures (a mark of high quality). Whilst most of the guests are seated at the table feasting, a couple are dancing the jig to the sound of a bagpiper. Attracted by the sounds of the festivities, a beggar has come to beg for alms, whilst another couple turns back, drawn by the sound of the music. On the left, a path flanked by trees in the background. Braided border. (Conservation restoration) Condition and restoration history Sold by description
