EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Louis XVI tapestry aux Chinoiserie, created in the late quarter of the 18th century. The exquisite piece, crafted from wool, is attributed to Francois Boucher and is currently held in a private collection. Part of a three-piece suite, this particular tapestry represents the first Chinese Dance or The Entertainment, while the other two depict The Wisdom Birds. These intricate designs were based on cartoons by Jean Joseph Dumons de Tulle. Measuring an impressive 263 x 320 cm (103A x 126 in. ), this tapestry transports viewers into a picturesque scene filled with tents and gardens adorned with orientalist motifs and chinoiseries. Figures can be seen enjoying themselves within the decorative pavilion as they revel in their entertainment. The rococo style of decoration adds an ornate touch to this textile masterpiece. With its rich colors and meticulous craftsmanship, it exemplifies the elegance and opulence associated with Louis XVI's reign. This print captures every detail of this stunning work of art - from its elaborate tent structures to its beautifully woven textiles. It serves as a testament to both the skill of its creator and the enduring allure of chinoiserie-inspired design.
