AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful large French Aubusson tapestry from the 19th century featuring a classic pastoral landscape in soft, natural tones.
Handwoven entirely in fine wool — a true piece of traditional craftsmanship from the Aubusson region of France, world-renowned for its exquisite tapestry art.

This tapestry measures approx W 193 × H 100 cm and is in perfect condition, depicting a serene scene with trees, birds, and a bridge in the distance. A stunning wall piece that adds warmth, history, and timeless elegance to any interior.

The Aubusson tapestry tradition is so highly regarded that it has been recognized by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, celebrating centuries of artistry and skill passed down through generations.

Each piece begins with an artist’s hand-drawn “cartoon” and is woven on a horizontal loom using hand-dyed wool yarns in subtle, layered hues — a process that can take weeks or even months to complete.
