EDITORS COMMENTS
This Flemish tapestry, titled "Fame (La Fama)" is a true masterpiece that transports viewers to the vibrant world of 16th-century Europe. Created around 1550 by model cartoonists from the circle of Bernard van Orley and Jan Gossaert, and manufactured by Pieter van Aelst in Brussels, this tapestry showcases exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Measuring an impressive 505x1030 cm, this textile marvel is made from a combination of gold, silver, silk, and wool threads. The intricate design depicts Fame herself, surrounded by a richly colored backdrop filled with symbolic elements. As one gazes at the tapestry's exquisite details and vivid colors, it becomes evident why it holds such historical significance. Currently housed in the Hall of Honours at the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso in Spain's Segovia province, this piece is part of a series called "The Honours". It was originally held in the collection of Emperor Charles V before finding its rightful place within Spain's National Heritage. Paul Maeyaert has skillfully captured this remarkable artwork through his photography. His image allows us to appreciate not only its grandeur but also its delicate beauty up close. This photograph serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy of Flemish tapestries and their ability to captivate audiences across centuries.
