AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
High-quality Italian Gobelin tapestry based on a fresco by Paolo Veronese (16th century) from the famous Villa di Maser (Villa Barbaro).
Depicted is a dynamic riding scene with a rearing horse, an allegorical-heroic composition of the Venetian Renaissance that embodies strength, movement, and aristocratic elegance. Expressive depiction of the figures, finely nuanced coloring, and intricate silk weaving give the tapestry an impressive presence.
Manufactured by Toninelli Milano, a renowned Italian maker of high-quality art tapestries. The front bears a copyright notice and a catalog number.
The tapestry is offered with the original hanging rod.
This one is fitted with fleur-de-lys end pieces (lilies), hand-cast from solid brass — a decorative and premium detail that further enhances its presence.
Style
Italian Renaissance, allegorical-heroic, representative, classical-elegant, inspired by Venetian palace and villa art of the 16th century.
Overall condition with a well-kept appearance, age-appropriate.
The tapestry has been cleaned. On the left side, small tears in the fabric appeared, which have since been somewhat repaired. They are visible upon close inspection but do not affect the visual impression.
No stains, no pulled threads. Colors stay fresh and even.
Measurements
Approximately 86 × 82 cm (without hanging rod)
With hanging rod 100×92 cm
Dating
2nd half of the 20th century (approx. 1960s–1970s)
