Belgian Tapestry
Belgian Tapestries are world famous and popular due to the
excellent craftsmanship that goes into their construction. Tapestry weaving is an ancient technique. Tapestries for interiors were
very popular with the upper classes in the late middle ages. Rich tapestry
owners liked large-scale scenes of aristocratic life, such as hunts, or
improving biblical stories or allegories. Tapestries are marvelous expressions
of rich history, artistic designs, and creativity.
They make the interior designing of your home complete
and add the ultimate touch of class to your home. The
most popular among Belgian tapestries are the Bayeux
tapestries and the Beatrix tapestries.
The term tapestry [or tapetum in Latin documents] originally meant a wall
hanging, including woven tapestry. The term tapestry is often applied today
to needlepoint or other stitched textile. True tapestry is woven. |
