Originally done by Jean-Baptiste Huet, this remarkable tapestry is part of a 10 tapestry series.This tapestry design is all about love and romance. The couple seated in the center of the piece are a typical fixture of French renaissance tapestries. Always proper, yet coy, these images exemplify what love and romance meant to people in this time period.
The beautiful jewel like blues in this tapestry are a delight to the eyes. The main drapery is a bold red, which contrasts nicely with the rest of the piece. This tapestry would look beautiful hung in a room with French classic elements and with creams, golds and greens. A rich mahogany wood will set this tapestry off wonderfully.
This French wall hanging is woven...in France! It is woven from a cotton and viscose blend. It comes backed with a lining and a tunnel for easy hanging.
Offering of Love comes in two grand sizes to choose from: H 44 x W 58 inches and H 82 x W 104 inches.
