157 X 263cm 18th Century Tapestry, Audenaarde

18th century
Description

I love the subject matter here, a young boy running through a verdant landscape, the string in his hand connected to a kite and his beautifully drawn face looking up. It's very unusual and Ido not recall seeing anything similar before. The colours are fresh, even vibrant especially around the clothing of the seated man, the crimson red stands out as does the pinkness of the boys knees. A wonderful scene, will bring decor and levity.

5'3" x 8'6"

Declaration

James Cohen Antique Carpets has dated this 18th Century Audenaarde Tapestry to the 1750s.

FAQs

Audenaarde tapestries were produced in the Flemish town of Oudenaarde, renowned from the 15th to 18th centuries for fine hand-woven textiles that predominantly featured verdure landscapes, pastoral life, and classical figures.

These textiles were woven on vertical or horizontal looms using durable wool threads for the warp, combined with dyed wool yarns and silk threads for the weft to create tonal variation and depth.

Authentic period tapestries demonstrate hand-spun yarn texture, natural vegetable dye oxidation over time, hand-stitched lining repairs, and characteristic weaving techniques along the outer outer selvedge borders.

Hang the wall textile on a large, neutral-toned wall in a hallway, dining room, or reception room to provide visual texture and historical contrast against contemporary furnishings.

Keep tapestries away from direct sunlight and damp environments, support the weight evenly using a stitched Velcro header rail, and consult textile conservation specialists for cleaning.
