Tapestry from Aubusson (France), early 18th century.
Technical characteristics : Wool and silk.
Dimensions: Height: 240cm; 265cm.
A country scene decorates this tapestry, where on the edge of a forest, near a cultivated garden with trellises, two young women compare their fruit pickings, while a group of four thieves seem intent on playing hide-and-seek. In the foreground, amidst the greenery, we see symbols of agricultural work, a wheelbarrow and a horse collar. A city can be seen on the horizon. Figurative frame molded with acanthus leaves and polychrome flowers (very good condition, some minor maintenance work).
