EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail from the tapestry "Hanging out of seigneurial life: leaving for hunting". Created around 1520 in the Netherlands, this exquisite piece is displayed at the National Museum of the Middle Ages in Paris. The tapestry, made from wool and silk, showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of the Netherlandish School during the 16th century. In this particular scene, we witness a glimpse into aristocratic life as nobles prepare to embark on a hunting expedition. The attention to detail is astounding; every element, from intricate botanical patterns to richly adorned costumes, transports us back in time. A falconer stands prominently with his arm extended while holding a majestic raptor perched upon it. This symbolizes both power and control over nature's predators. The Dutch influence is evident through their distinctive style and technique employed throughout this artwork. The composition exudes grandeur and sophistication that was synonymous with European nobility during that era. As we explore this image further, we are reminded of how art has always been an expression of human culture and history. It allows us to delve into different periods and gain insight into societal norms and values. This print by Josse beautifully encapsulates not only an extraordinary work of art but also serves as a window into our past - reminding us of our connection to those who came before us.
