Measuring an impressive 299.7x503.9 cm, this woolen masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Burrell Collection in Glasgow, Scotland. The tapestry portrays a scene of falconers engaging in the age-old tradition of hunting waterfowl. Set against a picturesque landscape with towering trees and meandering streams, skilled horse riders are accompanied by their loyal hounds as they navigate through the countryside. The intricate weaving technique used to create this textile marvel is evident in every detail, capturing the essence of movement and grace. Both men and women partake in this noble pursuit, showcasing gender equality even during that era. The falconers' expertise is highlighted as they command their majestic birds of prey to soar high above and capture ducks swimming peacefully on the stream below.
