Grape Harvest Portiere Tapestry

Grape Harvest Portiere Tapestry

$995.00
SKU LW1370
8'0" x 3'9" (245 x 115 cm)
This striking medieval tapestry portiere is inspired from an original tapestry woven in the 15th Century on a high-warp (vertical) loom. It originated from Les Ateliers de France, possibly from Burgundy, and was bequeathed by a Madame Edmond Dollfuss in 1930 to the Cluny Museum in Paris where it hangs today. In the Middle Ages, tapestries were almost exclusively commissioned by the nobility, yet they often featured scenes from everyday life including peasant activities. These tapestries depict the harvesting of grapes, and the pressing and treading into wine. The story is set against a mille-fleurs (thousand flowers) background which was very popular in the 15th Century and was possibly inspired by the custom of strewing cut flowers on the ground on fte days.

This beautiful tapestry is woven on a jacquard loom by skilled weavers, keeping alive the centuries old tradition of tapestry manufacturing from generation to generation. This tapestry is fully lined incorporating a rod pocket on the back for hanging with an exclusive Heirloom flush-to-wall hanging rod. Alternatively, this tapestry can be hung with a decorative pole of your choice.
