EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Flemish tapestry from an unknown series, possibly depicting Roman history and specifically Tarquinius Priscus (Tarquino Prisco). Created in the Brussels workshops around 1475, this exquisite piece is made of wool and silk with six warps per centimeter. It was generously donated by Count Alba de Aliste and arrived at the Cathedral of Zamora in 1608. Currently on display at the Cathedral Museum, this artwork represents the mastery of the Flemish School during the 15th century. Located in Castilla y Leon, Spain, it offers a glimpse into European art history. The intricate details and vibrant colors transport viewers back to a time when legends and myths were woven into everyday life. The tapestry features elements such as white wool balls symbolizing purity or perhaps representing important characters or events within Roman mythology. Its historical significance lies not only in its depiction of Tarquinius Priscus but also in its connection to medieval times and pagan beliefs prevalent during that era. With its regal motifs and religious undertones, this tapestry exemplifies both artistic excellence and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of kingship, royalty, religion, and polytheism that shaped societies centuries ago. This remarkable piece invites us to appreciate the rich tapestry of human history while marveling at the skillful craftsmanship that has preserved it for generations to come.
