This 5x5 vintage Aubusson tapestry is a rare and special new curation from Rug & Kilim—a signed mid-century original by French artist Jean Picart Le Doux, entitled “Concerto de Ravel”, handwoven in wool and originating from France circa 1940-1950.
On the Design:
"Concerto de Ravel" (which translates to a concert of the same French region) features a bold geometric composition, where a dramatic violin emerges from a dynamic interplay of red, gray, and black planes against a star-studded nocturnal background. The artist's signature style is evident in his cubist-inspired treatment of space, with architectural elements suggesting concert halls or music stands, while golden flames and stars create a cosmic dimension that speaks to the transcendent nature of Ravel's music.
The piece demonstrates exceptional Aubusson craftsmanship in its precise rendering of clean lines and geometric forms, while the color palette — dominated by deep crimson, cool gray, and midnight black punctuated by luminous golden stars — creates a balance that makes it a true collectible piece.
Condition:
This mid-century French tapestry further enjoys great condition for its age and origin—intended for use in wall-hanging projects only. less
