Crafted by the skilled hands of French artisans from the Gobelins workshop in 17th century Paris, this tapestry is a true masterpiece. The image transports us back to ancient times as we admire this remarkable work of art. The harbor scene surrounding the Colossus adds depth and context to its grandeur.
