EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history during the Middle Ages: the beginning of falcon hunting on horseback. The silk and wool tapestry, dating back to the early 16th century, showcases this ancient practice that was highly regarded among nobility. Created by the Belgian School, this masterpiece is now housed in the National Museum of the Middle Ages in Paris. The image depicts a French castle as its backdrop, adding an air of grandeur to the scene. A skilled horseman can be seen mounted on his majestic steed, accompanied by a magnificent falcon perched upon his gloved hand. This noble hunter exemplifies both power and grace as he embarks on his pursuit. The tapestry not only highlights human leisure but also celebrates nature's beauty and wildlife. The intricate details showcase every feather of the falcon and capture its intense gaze with remarkable precision. It serves as a reminder of our connection with animals and how they were once integral parts of our daily lives. As we admire this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an age-old tradition that shaped medieval society. It reminds us of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate both artistry and historical significance intertwined within each thread woven into this exquisite tapestry from Hainaut province.
