A 17th-century Flemish tapestry depicting a biblical scene from the life of Abraham, likely the episode of the expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael (Genesis 21). The composition shows the patriarch Abraham, recognizable by his long beard, seated on the left and conversing with a young man in the foreground, while a woman, presumably Sarah, stands between them. In the background, an open tent sheltering several figures evokes the patriarchs' encampment. The lively landscape setting of hills and vegetation is characteristic of large Flemish narrative tapestries. The palette is dominated by shades of blue, beige, and ochre, with precise rendering of faces and drapery. Dimensions: height 254 cm - width 228 cm. Good overall condition, with some old restorations. Lined on the back, with hanging rings.
