- "Verdure" tapestry woven in a Flemish workshop (Oudenaarde) in the 18th century.

- Fine verdure woven in a Flemish workshop in Oudenaarde in the 18th century. This tapestry, typical of Verdures, offers us a window onto a verdant landscape where nature coexists with the presence of man, signified by the architectural elements in the background. Positioning the viewer at the edge of a wood, this vantage point allows us to compose a landscape of great variety and depth: a foreground with tall trees on either side, like curtains on a stage, revealing a landscape embellished by a stream at the foot of a residential area. In the background, at different heights, two other building complexes stand out on the left and right. The vegetation is presented with great liveliness, as evidenced by the perceptible movement of the trees' foliage.

- The greenery is distinguished by its fine weave, which enabled the silk weavers to meticulously retranscribe the details of the design. Volumes are also perceptible thanks to the judicious choice of colors: light hues juxtaposed with darker ones, and flashes of light introduced by touch, thanks to the use of golden yellow silk, at the tips of the leaves. The colors offer picturesque cameos of blues and greens.

- Tapestry partially lined, rings as hanging system.

- Good condition

- Dimensions - height: 116 cm , width: 213 cm
