Reproduction Tapestry in the Style of The Lady and the Unicorn Series with Bourbon Heraldry
Description
A single woven textile wall hanging or tapestry reproduction, executed in the style of Medieval or early Renaissance millefleur tapestries. The iconography is derived from the famous The Lady and the Unicorn series. The central scene depicts two female figures flanked by a rearing lion and a unicorn, both holding flagstaffs topped with banners displaying a heraldic device of three white crescent moons on a dark central field, consistent with the arms of the Bourbon family. The background features dense foliage and a rich color palette dominated by greens, tans, reds, and dark tones. The construction is characteristic of a modern machine-loomed reproduction, featuring visible quilting or stitch lines across the surface for structural integrity.
