EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Flemish tapestry from the 16th century, part of the series "The History of Hannibal". Titled "The Crossing of the Alps" it is the second preserved tapestry from this collection. Created by an anonymous master of the Netherlands and manufactured in Brussels around 1570, this piece is a true testament to Flemish artistry. Measuring an impressive 354 x 479 cm, this wool and silk fabric masterpiece features intricate details with approximately 6.5/7 warps per cm. It currently resides in the Cathedral Museum at Catedral de Zamora in Castilla y Leon, Spain. The tapestry depicts Hannibal's legendary journey through the treacherous Alps during his campaign against Rome in 247-183 BC. The mountain scenery portrayed is awe-inspiring, with towering peaks and deep valleys that showcase both nature's beauty and its challenges. With its rich history and exquisite craftsmanship, this Flemish tapestry offers viewers a glimpse into European art during the late 16th century. The combination of white wool and silk velvet creates a stunning visual contrast that adds depth to every detail woven into its fabric. As you admire this extraordinary work of art, take note of how it captures not only historical events but also emotions and stories within its threads. This tapestry stands as a testament to human creativity throughout time and reminds us all of our shared cultural heritage.
