Tapestry - 59 cm - 59 cm - Burgundian medieval

Decorative wall tapestry in a medieval / Renaissance style, inspired by Burgundian iconography and the so-called millefleurs compositions.

The scene presents two ladies in period costume arranged on either side of a large heraldic escutcheon, within a dense setting of flowers, foliage and fantastical animals. Several banners with inscriptions reinforce the historicizing character of the whole.

The panel is made of woven textile, with a motif directly integrated into the fabric structure. It is framed by a wide gilded decorative border with vegetal motifs.

The back is fully lined with blue fabric. Four attachments are arranged on the upper edge to allow wall mounting.

This is a decorative reproduction produced later, inspired by medieval and Renaissance tapestries of Burgundian and Franco-Flemish tradition, and not an ancient tapestry from the 15th or 16th centuries.
