EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable tapestry depicting The Pheasant Hunt, believed to be from Tournai around 1480. Created by the Franco-Flemish School in the 15th century, this exquisite piece measures an impressive 323.5x333.7 cm and is currently housed in the Burrell Collection in Glasgow, Scotland. The tapestry beautifully captures a scene of nature's splendor with its intricate depiction of animals, trees, and birds. A group of hounds can be seen eagerly chasing after their prey while falconers skillfully navigate through the countryside. The attention to detail is astounding as every flower and blade of grass seems to come alive within the fabric. Amidst this vibrant landscape are men and women engaged in various hunting activities, showcasing both strength and grace. The presence of a falcon adds another layer of elegance to this already stunning composition. Woven with wool and silk threads, this tapestry represents not only a masterpiece of textile art but also provides us with insight into European culture during that era. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity that thrived during the Renaissance period. Through this print by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness an age-old tradition brought to life through meticulous weaving techniques. This artwork truly exemplifies how art has always been intertwined with our connection to nature and our desire for adventure.
