Antique French Tapestry, Aubusson, France.
Beautiful antique, machine woven wool tapestry. A tableau vivant, depicting men and women at a garden party, all in formal 18th century attire; some gathered around large see-saw swing, others playing a game of blind man’s bluff. Accenting the scene are trees, a dog and a chateau in the background.
Nicely preserved, with pastel colors intact.
*One small stain as shown circled in blue in one photo. The stain actually blends well with the leaves etc on the ground, so it doesn’t catch the eye.*
Shows no other signs of damage or restorations. Very decorative period piece.
(c)Late 19th or early 20th century
Measures approximately 57” x 20”.
Sepia toned base color, with tints of pink, blue, green, etc in clothing and scenery.
