Antique Medieval Hunt Tapestry

This vintage woven tapestry shows a medieval hunting scene, with archers in the woods, a leaping stag, a hound on the chase, and a lady on a white horse. It’s set against a deep magenta ground with a Gothic quatrefoil lattice and a floral border, in the style of French and Belgian revival tapestries from the late 1800s to early 1900s. It comes sandwiched in an oak quilt hanger stained walnut, ready to hang. Age-related wear is part of its character, including fading and light fringe loss, and the top edge is torn. The hanger accommodates the tearing for now, though the tapestry may eventually need repairs.
