EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable tapestry titled "Group of animals" created by the renowned Manifattura Gobelins. Housed in the magnificent Palazzo del Quirinale in Rome, this masterpiece takes us back to the eighteenth century, immersing us in the opulent Renaissance-Baroque styles and periods that defined Europe during that era. The tapestry itself is an exquisite representation of nature's diversity and beauty. A harmonious blend of birds, vertebrates, terrestrial mammals, and even an elephant and tiger grace the composition. Each animal seems to come alive through intricate details woven into their forms – from feathers to fur – creating a lifelike presence within this textile artwork. Amidst this vibrant menagerie stands a majestic horse, its powerful stance commanding attention amidst lush vegetation and towering trees. The vegetal elements add depth and richness to the scene while also symbolizing life's interconnectedness with nature. Dating back to 1763, this tapestry exemplifies Gobelins' exceptional workmanship. The level of skill required for such intricate weaving is awe-inspiring; every thread meticulously placed to create a visual feast for our eyes. Captured through Alinari Fratelli's lens around 1920-1930, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistry but also serves as a testament to historical preservation efforts. It reminds us of how art transcends time - bridging centuries together so we can marvel at its enduring beauty today. As we gaze upon this stunning image captured by Alinari Fratelli from Alinari archives, let it transport us back in time - where craftsmanship met creativity on looms at Manifattura Gobelins - reminding us of humanity's endless pursuit for artistic excellence throughout history.
