About the Item

A placid stream separates the rustic tower and structures in the background from the small beached boat with a fishing couple and dog. A net dries on a log frame in the foreground. A woman watches the scene from a balcony in the tower. Summer haziness. Touches of blue, with sort rusts, beiges and tans. Picture frame moulding border with acanthus twists. Wool pattern wefts. Tapestry weave.

  • Antique French Tapestry Rug 2'0'' x 3'9''
    Located in New York, NY
    Who’s got a dog in this fight? Clearly, two male peasants do, as they try to separate the two battling beasts with a hayfork and a stick while a mother and child cower to the right. The rustic character of the scene is emphasized by a farmhouse to the right. In the foreground are logs, leafy plants and a brook or stream. Trees in full seasonal leaf close off the scene at the left and background the excitement. The palette is warm, with an assortment of browns, greys, greens, straw, sand and sienna. The clothes of the peasant women are touched in pale blue-greys, light yellow and ecru. The fallen dog is in shades of brown, while the collared aggressor has a dark brown and off white coat. This wall hanging is executed in slit tapestry weave with wool pattern wefts. Measurres: 2'0'' x 3'9''. The styles of clothing indicate an early 19th century date for the depicted event, but the piece is clearly later.

These were popular in the cities with the rising affluent upper middle class who never came in contact with the real peasanterie, but who wanted to show their imagined roots in an agrarian lifestyle. In the 19th century, these tapestries were particularly popular in France. Unlike earlier tapestry sets...
