EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite tapestry titled "Tapestry, Sibylla Europa" which is part of a set of six Sibyls known as "The Rothamsted Tapestries". Created in Flanders, Tournai or Brussels, Belgium around 1530, this woolen masterpiece is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Belgian School during the 16th century. Measuring an impressive 325.1x167.6 cm, this tapestry depicts Sibylla Europa in all her splendor. She stands confidently beside a majestic lion while holding a banner that symbolizes her prophetic abilities. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this scene to life, capturing the essence of Europe personified as an oracle. Displayed at the Burrell Collection in Glasgow, Scotland, this artwork is not only visually stunning but also historically significant. Its fine craftsmanship and meticulous weaving technique are evident through its five warps per centimeter. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness the talent and creativity of these skilled artisans who dedicated countless hours to create such extraordinary works of art. This photograph allows us to appreciate every thread and brushstroke that went into bringing Sibylla Europa's story to life for generations to come.
