Emanating timeless style with incredible detail and texture, this handwoven wool antique French Aubusson tapestry is a captivating vision of woven beauty. The idyllic pastoral scene and soft earthy colorway woven into this piece work together creating a look of true Old World charm. The antique Aubusson wall hanging depicts a peaceful pastoral landscape with a watermill nestled in the French countryside. A couple of ducks swim leisurely in the pond surrounded by a lush enclosure of florals and foliage. The pastel earth-tone 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. With its picturesque view and charming scenery, this antique French aubusson tapestry draws inspiration from Paysage avec moulin a eau by Paul Cezanne.​
