EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Tapestry: Portiere aux Armes de France, a masterpiece woven under the skilled direction of Etienne-Claude Le Blond. Created in Gobelins Manufactory, one of France's most renowned textile workshops, this tapestry represents the epitome of French craftsmanship. Dating back to around 1730-1743, this stunning piece is made from a combination of wool and silk threads that have been expertly woven together. Its intricate design features the coat of arms of France, beautifully depicted with vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. The original cartoons for this tapestry were created by Pierre-Josse Perrot, who worked at Gobelins between 1724 and 1735. His artistic vision was brought to life through the skillful hands of talented weavers at Gobelins Manufactory. Measuring an impressive 360.7 x 266.7 cm (11 ft. 10 in. x 8 ft. 9 in. ), this portière - or door curtain - would have adorned grand interiors during its time. Today, it stands as a testament to the rich history and artistic heritage of France. Accompanied by a modern cotton lining for preservation purposes, this remarkable tapestry continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance. The Liszt Collection has captured every intricate detail in this print so that admirers can appreciate its splendor without commercial use intentions
