EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Beauvais historical tapestry, dating back to the late 17th and early 18th century. Created by renowned artist Philippe Behagle, this remarkable piece measures an impressive 262x481 cm and is crafted from a combination of wool and silk. The tapestry depicts a scene from "les petits chasses" featuring a king and queen beneath a parasol accompanied by two musicians. The intricate details within the wooded landscape transport viewers to another era, with glimpses of hilly landscapes in the distance adding depth to the composition. The simulated frame border adorned with clasps and fan motifs adds an elegant touch to this baroque masterpiece. Although there are limited areas of re-weaving, it does not diminish the overall beauty and historical significance of this artwork. This print captures every nuance of color, texture, and detail present in the original tapestry. It allows art enthusiasts to appreciate its idyllic portrayal of society life during that time period while providing a picturesque view into royal leisure activities. With references to Louis XIV, also known as "the Sun King" or "Louis the Great" this artwork represents an important part of French history under the House of Bourbons dynasty. A true treasure for any art lover's collection!
