Signed Jean Lurçat Vintage Aubusson Tapestry with Pictorials, from Rug & Kilim
Handwoven in wool circa 1940-1950, this 5x9 flatweave is a rare, signed vintage Aubusson tapestry from the works of Jean Lurçat, enjoying pictorials and floral patterns with Art Deco sensibilities.
On the Design:
Jean Lurcat (1892-1966) was a French artist known by connoisseurs for his rare works found today, though few compare to a beauty like this—a pictorial-meets-floral pattern with Art Deco sensibilities. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this for the masterpiece it is, both regal and graphic while of the finest craftsmanship—a meticulous piece for the most sophisticated eye. The design features gold border and beige field underscore insects and florals, leafage, and botanicals in brown, rust and amber tones. Collectors will note his signature (initials I.I.) on the underside panel, thus making it a very rare vintage signed tapestry.
Condition:
This vintage Aubusson tapestry by Jean Lurcat enjoys good condition for its age and origin, but still ideal for wall-hanging projects given is construction
