AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
French tapestry/wall hanging, depicting a hunting scene with horses and dogs. This is known as the Chasse d'Oudry (or La Chasse Royale), based on the 18th-century designs of the famous French painter Jean-Baptiste Oudry. It is a machine-woven Jacquard wall tapestry in the traditional Aubusson or Gobelin style.
The scene depicts an aristocratic royal hunt on horseback in a lush woodland landscape. In the foreground, hunters on horseback, hunting dogs and servants can be seen.
Inspired by the historic French tapestry art of the court of Louis XV. Modern vintage versions are made using a Jacquard weaving technique (usually a blend of cotton, wool and synthetic fibres).
The specific lot shown on screen measures 110 cm high by 145 cm wide.
The hanging loops and finishing trim are included.
This item has been removed from its wooden frame because it was damaged by the previous carrier.
As a result, there are some minor flaws along the edges (see photos). These will no longer be visible once it has been stretched again.
