About the Item
Important Vietnamese Silk Embroidery Hanging, Framed, "Deer in the Forest", Vietnam, circa 1940.
Discover a rare and elegant piece of Indochinese craftsmanship created during the French colonial period.
This exceptional silk embroidery depicts a bucolic scene of deer roaming in a lush forest, offering a perfect blend of exoticism and European influence.
Unlike many creations of the time, this work diverges from traditional Asian motifs to align with the aesthetic codes of European tapestries, showcasing a perfect cultural fusion and timeless refinement.
This exceptional piece is enhanced by its original frame, also dating from the 1940s.
The wooden frame, glassed to protect the embroidery, features an elegant light blue patina, adding a delicate and timeless touch to the whole.
The frame highlights the richness of the details while ensuring the perfect conservation of the tapestry.
