1969 Enhance your collection with this exquisite pair of vintage loom-woven silk tapestries. These intricate textile artworks were purchased in Paris in 1969, as documented by the original handwritten provenance card included with the set. The pair features two distinct, highly detailed European scenes. The left tapestry beautifully renders the iconic Gothic architecture of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, complete with the surrounding gardens and riverbank. The right tapestry transports you to the countryside with a charming Alpine Chalet nestled within a dramatic mountain landscape. Crafted using a fine loom-weaving technique, these pieces exhibit a rich texture and a subtle, luxurious sheen characteristic of silk textiles. The complex threadwork creates a painterly depth of color and detail that printed art cannot replicate. This is a complete, matching pair with significant historical provenance.
