Monumental 18th Century Flemish Verdure Tapestry with Classical Scene
Monumental 18th Century Flemish Verdure Tapestry with Classical Scene

Monumental 18th Century Flemish Verdure Tapestry with Classical Scene

Located in Dallas, TX

This monumental 18th century Flemish verdure tapestry, woven circa 1780, measures over ten-and-a-half feet wide and depicts an elaborate classical court scene, possibly from the life of Alexander the Great. The central armored figure, shown wearing a plumed helmet and richly detailed military dress, stands among noble attendants and finely dressed female figures beneath a parasol, while a secondary group of figures appears at the right within the wooded landscape. The composition is framed by lush trees, flowering plants, stylized foliage, and architectural garden elements, creating the depth and drama associated with fine European verdure tapestry work. Woven in a beautifully aged palette of soft blue, teal, taupe, cream, beige, and brown, the antique textile has a time-softened surface that gives it tremendous old world presence. Its impressive scale makes it an exceptional architectural wall decoration for a dining room, living room, library, grand entry, stair landing, or large paneled interior. The tapestry has been later backed with canvas for support and finished with a blue border for presentation. In very good condition commensurate with age and use, all consistent with an antique woven textile...

Shop Vintage Tapestries on 1stDibs

Whether you hang them behind your bed as a dazzling alternative to a headboard or over the sofa as a large-scale focal point in the living room, vintage tapestries can introduce an array of textures and colors to any space in your home.

Woven wall hangings haven’t consistently enjoyed the popularity or earned the highbrow status that other types of wall decorations have over the years, at least not since the 1970s, which was somewhat of a heyday for tapestries. Today, however, these tactile works of art are seeing a renaissance, as modern weavers are forging new paths in the medium while the demand for antique and vintage tapestries continues to grow.

“We are drawn to texture in environments, and we see tapestries as a subtle layer of soft ornament,” says Lauren Larson of the New York design duo Material Lust. Indeed, and a lot of opportunity comes along when decorating with this distinctive brand of soft ornament.

Think of wall hangings as paintings created by hand with fabric instead of oil or watercolors. If you’re not simply securing your treasure to a wall with nails, pushpins or Velcro, tapestries can be stretched over a frame, used to create a canopy in a cozy living-room corner, hung from a rod or placed inside a shadowbox. And because this kind of textile art is hundreds of years old, options abound with respect to subjects and designs.

For richly detailed depictions of landscapes and garden scenes, look to antique Chinese tapestries and Japanese tapestries. Aubusson tapestries are ornate wall hangings manufactured in central France that are also characterized by romantic portrayals of nature. For weavers of mid-century modern tapestries, as well as those working in textile arts today, the styles and subject matter are too numerous to mention, with artists exploring experimental shapes, bold colors and provocative abstract designs.

Antique, new and vintage tapestries can make a room feel warm and welcoming — find yours on 1stDibs now.
