About this piece

Mid-18th-century Flemish tapestry titled “Feuilles d’Aristoloche,” with an esoteric composition and clear period character. Recently cleaned and in structurally good condition.

Areas where darker tones are now absent—particularly within the fruit motifs—reflect the long-term effect of tannin-based dyes used on darker-coloured wool threads. Over time these tannins degraded the natural fibres, resulting in selective thread loss, a phenomenon commonly observed in historic, unrestored tapestries.

- Origin: Flemish
- Title: “Feuilles d’Aristoloche”
