Exceptional and important tapestry of the Royal Manufacture of Aubusson (France), middle of the XVIIIth century, Louis XV period Technical characteristics : In wool and silk. Dimensions : Height : 236cm ; 395cm. (Some natural oxidations) "Greenery with animals" Cardboard after Pillement. In a flowery and luxuriant undergrowth, in the shade of large trees and under the curious eye of a variegated parrot, a scene of life is played out. A hunting dog has just caught an elegant and graceful wader on the banks of a river. This action takes place in the gardens of a wealthy residence, while the silhouette of a perched village looms in the distance. Figurative molded frame with acanthus leaves. Beautiful freshness of colors.
