2014 Paris

Next stop was the Musée de Cluny (Cluny Museum). Pictured is part of The Lady and the Unicorn tapestries, a series of 6 tapestries woven from wool and silk created around 1500. The subject of the tapestries is complex, and scholars “now (generally) agree that they present a meditation on earthly pleasures and courtly culture, offered through an allegory of the senses.”
