19th Century French Tapestry of a Forest Hunting Scene "The Hunts of Maximilian"

About the Item

This exquisite 19th-century French tapestry, woven on a Jacquard loom, is a stunning reproduction of a panel from the celebrated 16th-century Flemish tapestry series, The Hunts of Maximilian. Originally designed by Bernaert Van Orley (c. 1528–1531) and hand-woven in Brussels at the Dermoyen workshop between 1531–1533, the series depicted the lavish hunting scenes of Emperor Maximilian I. This particular reproduction showcases Panel III, with a vivid forest and hunting scene, capturing the Renaissance-era intricacy and grandeur of the original works. Rich in detail and natural motifs, the tapestry brings to life a moment of action and pageantry, echoing the style, texture, and storytelling brilliance of the original wool, silk, and metallic-thread masterpieces. SKU Nos. 1249 and 1250 belong to this rare and historic reproduction series, preserving an important chapter in European textile art.

19th Century Caucasian Soumak Rug Tapestry Wall Art
Located in Barrington, IL
This remarkable Shirvan Soumak from the Caucasus region of Asia is a rare and collectible textile composed of six individually designed panels, each showcasing its own distinct color palette and pattern. Woven using the traditional Soumak technique, this piece features naturally dyed wool, with vegetable-based pigments that have gracefully matured over time, resulting in a beautifully nuanced patina. Unlike kilims, Soumak textiles are known for their thicker, more robust construction and embroidery-like detailing. The weaving technique—wrapping colored weft threads over warp yarns—produces a smooth face and a subtly textured back, creating both visual richness and lasting durability. Originally used for domestic bags and bedding storage (known as Mafrash), this type of weaving is now celebrated as collectible art. Whether displayed as a wall tapestry or integrated into a curated interior design, this Shirvan Soumak brings authenticity, artistry, and the enduring spirit of nomadic life into your space. A treasured heirloom-quality piece for collectors, connoisseurs, and designers alike. Dimensions: 3′ 4″ x 4’ 6″ Date of Manufacture: 4th Quarter of the 1800s Place of Origin: Caucasus Material: Wool pile on a wool foundation with organic vegetable dyes Condition: Wear consistent with age and use The Persian Knot Gallery, SKU 1254 Vintage tribal wall decor, Handwoven Caucasian kilim, Antique horse blanket...
