EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Tapestry: Les Astronomes, from L Histoire de l empereur de la Chine Series, created by the renowned Beauvais Manufactory in France. Founded in 1664, this prestigious institution produced this masterpiece under the skillful direction of Philippe Behagle between 1697 and 1705. The tapestry itself is a testament to the incredible artistry and craftsmanship of its time. Woven with a combination of wool and silk threads, it measures an impressive L: 424 x W: 319 cm (13 ft. 11 in. x 10 ft. 5½ in. ), making it a truly grand piece. The design for this tapestry was based on cartoons by Guy-Louis Vernansal, Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer, and Jean-Baptiste Belin de Fontenay - all esteemed French artists who contributed their talents to bring this scene to life. Featuring astronomers engrossed in their celestial observations against a backdrop of intricate details and vibrant colors, this tapestry transports viewers back to an era where science and art intertwined harmoniously. Preserved with care over centuries, this remarkable work now boasts a modern cotton lining that ensures its longevity for generations to come. As we admire this print from the Liszt Collection, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these talented artisans who dedicated themselves to creating timeless masterpieces like Tapestry: Les Astronomes.
