Wall Hanging Tapestry "falcon Hunting". Twentieth Century

Tapestry in the medieval taste "The Hunting of the Falcon".
Reproduction by ARTIS FLORA, private collection N°9/82, production around 1950.
The original is on display at the Cluny Museum in Paris, from the 16th century.

Tapestry in wool painted on linen, lined with burlap with wall fixings on the back (wrought iron) along the entire length.

This tapestry represents the beginning of a falcon hunt, a noble activity par excellence because it requires not only means but also a certain skill, it is also an opportunity to display elegance. The hunters represented correspond to this logic, since they control their animals themselves, in a fine crew.
The attention to detail in the costumes, harnesses and physiognomies marks a beautiful production.
The background evokes the atmospheric perspectives of Flemish paintings, and the clothing places the work around 1500.
