Handwoven in wool and originating from France circa 1950, this 4×6 vintage tapestry is a collectible from Aubusson, by a distinguished French visual artist known for his significant contributions to the world of mid-century tapestry art.
On the Design:
This masterwork features a revolutionary departure from classical Aubusson tradition through its bold abstract design that transforms tapestry into pure modernist statements.
The design employs fragmented geometric planes that intersect and overlap with cubist precision, creating a depth through color relationships and angular aesthetic.
The design achieves dynamic equilibrium through asymmetrical balance where warm coral and amber elements provide visual weight against cooler sage and charcoal zones.
Each geometric plane maintains crisp definition while subtle gradations within color fields create atmospheric depth that suggests painted canvas translated into textile medium.
The fragmented planes suggest influence from contemporary abstract expressionist painting while maintaining the architectural quality fundamental to successful tapestry design.
This mid-century Aubusson transcends conventional textile boundaries to function as wall-mounted artwork, its abstract modernist composition creating sophisticated focal points that enhance luxury interiors with authentic French artistic heritage.
In luxury residential applications, this tapestry anchors sophisticated color schemes while its vertical format provides dramatic wall emphasis perfect for formal reception areas, private galleries, or master bedroom suites where its artistic merit can be fully appreciated.
Condition:
This vintage tapestry further enjoys great condition for its age and origin—an extremely collectible work. Ideally for exclusive use in wall-hanging projects and similar applications.
