Flemish Tapestry, Early 17th Century
- A Flemish tapestry woven in a workshop in Oudenaarde in the early 17th century.
- This tapestry depicts a lively landscape featuring several distinct scenes: a military encampment on the left, sheep being sheared in the center, and a court hearing on the right. The figures move through a setting rich with greenery: trees, flowers, and plants fill the scene. Numerous anecdotal details populate this tapestry—details that are pleasing to the eye and full of charm, such as the sheep shearing or the soldier’s choreographed pose on the right.
- This tapestry features a border with floral and plant motifs that serves as a decorative frame. This border, dating from the 18th century, was added later with great care, particularly to preserve continuity at the corners.
- In good condition, though some wear is present (see photos). Mounting rings allow for immediate hanging.
- Dimensions - Width: 213 cm / Height: 110 cm
