REQUEST INFORMATION
The tapestry of the Aubusson Manufactory in the 19th century, renowned for its fine, detailed works intended to adorn elegant interiors.
Subject: A bucolic pastoral scene, very popular in Aubusson tapestries, inherited from 18th-century fashion and still popular in the 19th.
Composition:
Foreground:
Four figures in country clothes, dancing and joyful.
A woman can be seen in the center, crowned with flowers and holding a basket, surrounded by young men and women dressed in the costumes of idealized shepherds and peasants.
A dog accompanies the scene, reinforcing the idea of ??a happy pastoral.
Background:
Verdant landscape with tall trees, foliage worked in shades of green, blue, and ochre.
In the distance, a country house or château can be seen, nestled in a rolling landscape.
To the left, a seated bagpiper adds a musical and festive dimension.
Border:
Rich floral border, adorned with garlands of multicolored flowers (roses, cornflowers, daisies, etc.), typical of Aubusson tapestries.
It harmoniously frames the scene, transforming it into a true "wool and silk painting."
Style:
Pastoral galant: A direct legacy of Rococo period designs, reminiscent of the country scenes of Boucher and Watteau.
Palette: Predominantly shades of green, brown, and blue, softened to create a natural yet refined appearance.
Technique: High-quality weaving, with attention to detail in the foliage, folds of clothing, and facial expressions.
In summary:
This tapestry depicts a moment of village rejoicing in a bucolic setting, with rich floral decoration and typically French elegance, faithful to the Aubusson tradition of the 19th century.
