Tapestries (1)
|
So currently I'm working where they need of me. At the International City of Tapestry.
Since 2009, Unesco has classed Aubusson tapestry in the "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity".
There are old tapestries, I'll show you only few.
There are also tapestries done those last 7 years. They'll be in other medleys.
So here we have a huge tapestry at the top left. The tapestry of the elephant is indeed more than 5 meters of sides. The angle in the room makes it pretty impossible to take it altogether. It's often nicknamed "Asia".
The top right is from the same epoch, the XVIIIth century if my mind remembers correctly.
The bottom one is from XXth century.
