Signed Vintage Andre Borderie Tapestry with Abstract Patterns - Rug & Kilim
About the Item
Handwoven in wool and originating from France circa 1965, this 5×7 vintage tapestry is a signed collectible from Andre Maurice, a prominent French artist who played a significant role in the revitalization of tapestry art in the 20th century.
On the Design:
This André Borderie tapestry, a powerful and evocative piece, transcends mere decoration to become a poignant historical narrative while exploration of biomorphic form against negative space. It is not simply an abstract design, but a remembrance of the siege of Montségur, a pivotal and tragic event in medieval history. The field features a centralized organic structure rendered in cream against a saturated black field, creating dramatic contrast that emphasizes the gestural quality of the forms. The design employs a controlled vertical orientation with cellular, amoeba-like elements clustered around a central axis, suggesting botanical or biological structures without direct representation. Strategic color accents—deep purple and rust-brown—appear as precise interventions within the predominantly monochromatic palette, creating focal points within the composition. The relationship between positive and negative space creates perceptual tension, with the black ground simultaneously reading as void and active design element. Borderie's masterful use of almost distressed texture and subtle variations in color further enhance the tapestry's emotional and visual impact.
Condition:
This vintage tapestry further enjoys great condition for its age and origin—an extremely collectible work. Ideally for exclusive use in wall-hanging projects and similar applications.
