Antique Aubusson Tapestry with Golden Column Panels of Irises

About the Item

Antique Aubusson Tapestry with Golden Column Panels of Irises. This exquisite antique Aubusson tapestry was delicately crafted in France around the middle of the 19th century during the reign of Louis Napoleon Bonaparte. The central body is composed of five golden honey-colored column panels filled with an abundance of repeat-patterned irises rendered in ivory tones. The surrounding blue border is framed by dual narrow-banded inner and outer guards and peppered with France’s traditional fleur-de-lis motifs. Highly decorative swept and pierced golden cartouches on all sides are accompanied by open-shell motifs at the corners to create the effect of a fine 18th century gilt frame. Beautiful in design and execution, this Aubusson tapestry brings to ones home the refined elegance of France’s decorative history. Measures: 4'10 x 8'10.

    The Aubusson tapestry manufacture of the 17th and 18th centuries managed to compete with the royal manufacture of Gobelins tapestry and the privileged position of Beauvais tapestry. Tapestry manufacture at Aubusson, in the upper valley of the Creuse in central France, may have developed from looms in isolated family workshops established by Flemings that are noted in documents from the 16th century. Typically, Aubusson tapestries depended on engravings as a design source or the full-scale cartoons from which the low-warp tapestry-weavers worked. As with Flemish and Parisian tapestries...
