Flemish Tapestry Depicting Summer, Date: 1600s
This 17th-century Flemish tapestry depicting summer features several figures in period costumes interacting in a lush garden, while in the background a dense forest opens up toward a fortified village. The dominant tones of blue, green, and ochre attest to the use of fine wool and silk yarns typical of the workshops in Oudenaarde or Brussels. The composition is framed by a rich border decorated with cherubs, garlands of flowers, and fruit, which enhance the work’s decorative prestige.
Some restoration work has been done on the border, as can be seen in the photos
