EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite tapestry titled "L'Entree de Sancho dans l'Ile de Barataria" from the renowned L'Histoire de don Quichotte series. Woven at the esteemed Gobelins Manufactory in France, this masterpiece was created under the skilled direction of Michel Audran and his son Jean Audran fils during their tenure at the manufactory. The tapestry is a faithful reproduction of Charles-Antoine Coypel's painting, with its intricate details brought to life using silk and wool threads. The alentours, or surrounding elements, were collaboratively designed by Claude Audran III, Jean-Baptiste Belin de Fontenay fils, Alexandre-Francois Desportes, and Valande. Measuring an impressive 12 feet 1 inch by 13 feet 7 inches (368.3 x 414 cm), this tapestry transports viewers into a scene from Miguel de Cervantes' iconic novel Don Quixote. It depicts Sancho Panza's entrance into the fictional island of Barataria as he assumes his role as governor. Every thread meticulously woven together tells a story of artistry and craftsmanship that has endured since its creation in 1772. This print allows admirers to appreciate the beauty and grandeur of this historical piece without mentioning any commercial use associated with it. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured through photography, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage preserved within each stitch—a testament to human creativity transcending time and place.
