A lovely slice of old-world charm right here, a fine French wool tapestry from the late 19th century, sourced from a collector who kept it safe all these years. The scene is joyful, calming and serene with a woman playing a wind instrument under leafy trees while three cherub-like babies dance to the music. It feels like a little countryside concert frozen in time, with soft, earthy tones sealed within. The scene is warm and inviting.
The border design is full of lush fruit and foliage, showing off classic French feels. It does show slight breaks in the wool fibers near the mountain peaks, but nothing that takes away from its beauty or fun narrative. When something’s been around this long, a bit of character is part of the magic.
Perfect for hanging or framing, especially if you want an art moment that feels collected and storied. Whether above a sofa, in a hallway gallery setup, or layered in a study, this tapestry brings a gentle sense of history and whimsy to a space. Please see the video clip for more details and a great capture of the texture and beauty of this antique Tapestry.
