EDITORS COMMENTS

The scene depicted on the tapestry shows an eagle swooping down to take his hat as he progresses with his wife Tanaquil and court towards Rome. The intricate details of this Flemish art piece showcase the opulence and grandeur of the early modern era. The rich colors, detailed patterns, and historical significance make this tapestry a true masterpiece.
