3 x 5 - Green Antique French Tapestry - 77764

77764 Antique French Aubusson Verdure Tapestry 03'01 x 04'10.

This hand-woven antique French Aubusson verdure tapestry depicts a landscape scene of the French countryside. Displaying dense foliage, greenery, fauna and flowers, this antique French tapestry portrays a tranquil setting. Among lush foliage, a long neck bird idles in the mild spring days next to a river with a small waterfall and castle in perspective. It is enclosed with a rinceaux acanthus and floral scroll border. The colors join to create a truly compelling dance, and inaudibly speak with a timeless voice that is characterized by sensual decadence, as well as by stately action. All facets of this piece collectively entwine to form the striking and grand charm of a textile that is worthy to depict the tender, emotive, and vibrant details of humans and histories, no longer known.

Rendered in variegated shades of green, gold, tan, brown, cerulean, light celadon, beige, sky blu
