This exquisite 19th-century French tapestry, woven on a Jacquard loom, is a stunning reproduction of a panel from the celebrated 16th-century Flemish tapestry series, The Hunts of Maximilian. Originally designed by Bernaert Van Orley (c. 1528–1531) and hand-woven in Brussels at the Dermoyen workshop between 1531–1533, the series depicted the lavish hunting scenes of Emperor Maximilian I.
This particular reproduction showcases Panel III, with a vivid forest and hunting scene, capturing the Renaissance-era intricacy and grandeur of the original works. Rich in detail and natural motifs, the tapestry brings to life a moment of action and pageantry, echoing the style, texture, and storytelling brilliance of the original wool, silk, and metallic-thread masterpieces.
SKU Nos. 1249 and 1250 belong to this rare and historic reproduction series, preserving an important chapter in European textile art.
