Description: Royal Elephant, a French-made impressionist jacquard woven tapestry wall hanging shows a beautiful Asian Indian elephant covered with rich carpets and ornaments. This panel was inspired by a famous 19th century tapestry on display at the Louvre Museum in Paris. The design, attributed to Jean-Baptiste-Amédée Couder (1797-1864) draws on a number of different sources. By introducing these exotic influences, this tapestry contributed to a revival of the decorative arts in France in the 1840's. The luxuriant landscape is framed by a pair of twisted columns. The ornamental border is very rich, composed of a dense, complex tracery recalling the decorative vocabulary of Islamic architecture. Beyond this architectural frame lies a luminous landscape in which an Asian elephant decorated with carpets and ornaments can be seen passing between a palm and a banana tree. This tapestry is a beautiful work of art and will compliment any home decor motif. A sleeve is sewn into the cotton lining for hanging.
