Reclining Putto
probably Beauvais
Not on view
This was originally a chair-back on the type of tapestry-upholstered furniture popular since the eighteenth century. Except for the putto’s body, rendered in wool, most of the panel is woven with fine silks. The exquisite workmanship and wide-ranging palette are typical of tapestries associated with Beauvais.
