The Lady and the Unicorn - Smell
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating tapestry that transports us back to 15th century France. This exquisite print, captured by Bridgeman Images, showcases the intricate details of this renowned artwork housed in the Musee National du Moyen Age et des Thermes de Cluny in Paris. In this enchanting scene, we witness a lady surrounded by an array of vibrant flowers and lush greenery. Her delicate features are illuminated as she delicately holds a fragrant bouquet to her nose, inhaling its intoxicating scent. The air is filled with the sweet aroma of nature's finest creations. A loyal dog stands faithfully at her side while a majestic lion rests peacefully nearby, adding an element of both strength and grace to the composition. A playful monkey perches on her shoulder, mischievously reaching for another flower from her basket. The presence of a servant maid suggests that this lady belongs to nobility or royalty. She wears a garland adorned with birds and rabbits symbolizing fertility and abundance. And amidst it all stands the mythical creature - the unicorn - representing purity and innocence. This tapestry not only captures our senses through its depiction of smell but also invites us into a world where mythological creatures coexist harmoniously with humanity. It serves as a testament to both religious beliefs and pagan traditions prevalent during that era. "The Lady and the Unicorn: Smell" is more than just art; it is an immersive experience that allows us to appreciate beauty in
