Tapestry at Point d’Halluin.
Taste is the central element of the Lady and the Unicorn series, and also the most harmonious.
The composition is based on the principle of inverted perspective. The two poles draw the eye to the center of the work. This effect is further reinforced by the two trees at either end.
A real sense of depth is achieved in this hanging, with the unicorn and lion in the first plane, the next in the second and the Lady in the third.
Unlike other Lady of the Unicorn tapestries, it’s not the Lady who gives us the meaning of Taste. Instead, it’s the monkey at her feet who brings a delicacy to his mouth. A delicacy he has stolen.
The young woman simply takes a dragée from the cup held out by the next. The parakeet on her hand feasts on one of them.
In this tapestry, unlike others, there is no obvious contrast between the dress of the next lady and that of the Lady. In fact, this is a specific feature of the tapestry depicting taste. Both are dressed in light-catching gowns, their hair held in place by a silversmith’s band.
This tapestry is woven on a Jacquard loom in France, using the Point d’Halluin technique, which gives it a very fine quality of execution. And like all tapestries on this site, a certificate of authenticity is affixed to the back of the tapestry.
Tapestries over 130 cm are 74% wool. 59% wool for the 90 x 120 cm tapestry.
