EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent portiere adorned with the coat of arms of Louis-Antoine de Pardaillan de Gondrin, Duke of Antin. Created in the renowned Gobelins factory between 1708 and 1736, this tapestry is a true masterpiece of the French School from the 18th century. The portiere features an exquisite textile design that incorporates various elements symbolizing power, elegance, and cultural diversity. At its center, we can observe a native figure wearing a crown and feathered headdress, representing personification of North America. Surrounding this central figure are vibrant flowers and bows intertwined with floral decorations. Notably, American Indian motifs are also present in this artwork as seen through the inclusion of a quiver filled with arrows. These weapons serve as reminders of both strength and heritage. It is worth mentioning that Louis-Antoine de Pardaillan de Gondrin was not only known for his noble status but also for his role as an administrator at the prestigious Gobelins workshop. This print captures every intricate detail and color palette used to create this extraordinary piece. It serves as a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship displayed by French artisans during this era.
