A feuilles de choux tapestry fragment decorated with exotic animals.

Oudenaarde, second half of the 16th century.

This early type of tapestry decorated with large voluminous foliage is often referred to as ‘feuilles de choux’ which translates as ‘cabbage leaves’ and often includes a magnitude of exotic and mythical animals. This tapestry fragment in particular is heavily decorated with green foliage containing a bird, butterfly, horse, griffin and a monkey with its young, above the foliage a cityscape can be seen in the distance.

The tapestry is in an exceptional state of preservation and has been cleaned, relined and is ready to hang.
