This magnificent tapestry was woven in Flanders during the middle of the European Renaissance, in the late 1500s. At this time, Flanders was creating some of the best textiles in the world, and many of the rich wooded scenes with animals and hunting motifs began to appear. Tapestries subjects were thick forests and park lands, hunting scenes filled with deer, birds, exotic animals, and even mythological creatures. These were later referred to as Game Park tapestries, and the one seen here is a perfect example. It depicts animals running throughout a foliate background. An array of people gathering in a park setting.
Measures: 9'7 x 9'8.
This tapestry is a fragment, yet the main border was likely kept for this tapestry. Wonderful conversation piece, this 16th century Game Park tapestry will be the focal point of any room. less
