TAPESTRIAN PANEL FROM FELLETIN (CREUSE REGION), NEAR AUBUSSO - Lot 281
TAPESTRIAN PANEL FROM FELLETIN (CREUSE REGION), NEAR AUBUSSON, FRANCE, EARLY 17th CENTURY Wool and silk. "Venus and Mars", Venus, goddess of love, lounging in the shade of a rich drapery, on a carved antique table bed, dressed in a bluish toga, converses and compromises with Mars, god of war, lightly dressed. Indeed, his military harness is strewn across the floor, shield, cuirass and feathered helmet have been carelessly discarded, while two cherubs are busy removing his sandals, to the sound of a third playing his horn. Cupid, meanwhile, "kindles the fires of love" hidden beneath the drapery of Venus's bed. Blue and pastel border, with garland of flowers and fruit and vases in bloom. Dimensions: Height: 304cm; Width: 295cm Good condition, minor maintenance restorations Sold by designation
