For the most part large size looms have been used to weave tapestries on. A good amount of types of threads have been used to create laces like gold
silk and silver threads weaving different pictures of subjects plus those of the peasant scenes after Teniers
Biblical history
mythology
etc. Tapestries have been used as wall hangings yet unlike needlework
it was woven on a loom. It was also made in levels much larger than would generally be used in hand-stitched embroidery; tapestry panels ranging from ten or twelve feet in height and twenty feet long are rather typical. The main medium was wool
but in special models silk was moreover used. In some of the finest works the use of gold and silver can be seen. The main center of tapestry weaving from the year 1500 has been Brussels. But the outputs during the years have enormously varied in quality. Biblical and Roman history
peasant
mythology and scenes ensuing Teniers were some of the subjects. Several seventeenth-and eighteenth-century works are let down by the reality that over the years a murky brownish image has faded their red dyes. Brussels tapestries usually own a mark with a shield with the letter 'B' on either side.
At times weavers add their names or initials
in the work. There were two critical factories in France. Both the Gobelins and Beauvais were established in the second half of the seventeenth century. Though the former was a private worry with State support
the latter was a Royal factory and it was only in the late eighteenth century when one could buy any of its productions. Though both did work of the highest quality
Beauvais was generally well-known for a chain of panels established on the Fables of La Fontaine
and for a large amount of sets of settee covers and chairs. The former was also produced at Gobelins
where approximately 1775 they made beautiful and model sets of furniture covers and matching wall hangings.
Example of these types of decorative harmony is to be seen in a room constructued by Robert Adam
remains at Osterley Park
near London. A set of furniture (shorn of its wall-hangings but even now intact Gobelins covers) made for Moor Park in Hertfordshire
is housed in the Museum of Art in Philadelphia. A good deal of of these rich ensembles are intact even now
but a collection of tapestries that had been made for a store at Croome Park in Warwickshire has been sold off for a sum of ฃ50
0
and is now seen in the New York
Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Once again in France at Aubusson
tapestry panels
chair covers and also tapestry carpets were produced. Most of the output belongs to the nineteenth century
despite the pattern of work is similar to an earlier era. Philip and Michael Wauters
supplying to international markets
they wove their tapestry in Antwerp. Works popularized by additional plants were copied here with accomplishment
these Flemish tapestries were also at times confused with the English productions they copied. Brussels was the center head of tapestry weaving.
