Description from the seller
This impressive, vertical Napoleon III tapestry (290 x 130 cm) that imitates the Aubusson Rococo verdure models. The central and dominant feature is a large, lush tree that fills the composition. At the very top of the tree, perched prominently, are two exotic birds: a cockatoo and a parrot. The tapestry's design is characterized by the soft, flowing lines and naturalistic details typical of the Rococo style, creating a sense of pastoral tranquility and elegant whimsy. The colors are likely to be a harmonious blend of muted greens, soft browns, and subtle highlights, with the brightly plumed birds providing a vibrant focal point.
Provenance: Private collection
- Measurements: 290 x 130 cm
Good condition, with minor wear. The tapestry has been taken to a restorer to clean stains and remove dust from the fabric.
The artwork will be shipped and packed professionally, and delivered to you in no time.
