Chasseurs dans un paysage

With elements after a design on a woodcut by Jost Amman Swiss
ca. 1575–95
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 509
La palette de cette étroite et longue tapisserie murale est magnifiquement conservée. La pièce devait être accrochée « à l’anglaise », selon la terminologie des tisserands flamands de l’époque, soit entre la corniche et la cimaise d’une pièce lambrissée. Le style, l’iconographie et la technique permettent en effet de l’attribuer à des tisserands émigrés de la Flandre en guerre, qui avaient trouvé refuge en Angleterre, probablement à Londres. Signe de la gêne des réfugiés, les éléments du carton de la tapisserie ont été habilement assemblés autour d’un dessin réemployé : en effet, le manoir que l’on voit au centre est inspiré d’une gravure sur bois de l’artiste suisse Jost Amman (1539–1591) représentant le palais du roi Salomon.
