Fine Aubusson Tapestry in wool and silk,... - Lot 47 - FEE - Stanislas Machoïr
Fine Aubusson Tapestry in wool and silk, mid-19th century "Maximilian's Hunt" In a sparse undergrowth, in the middle of a hilly landscape, a short hunting scene takes place. Hunters on foot and on horseback are stalking the boar. Under the curious eye of a green woodpecker, a jackdaw and a squirrel, a massive boar is attacked by a pack of aggressive dogs with sharp fangs, while a richly dressed and dashingly mounted rider tries to obliterate the wild beast, aided by a pedestrian armed with a woodpecker. Magnificent border with acanthus leaves, garlands of flowers, fruits, birds, vases, horns of plenty, ribbons and sphinxes. An imperial eagle overlooks the whole. Great finesse. Height: 181; Width: 216cm
