EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a tapestry illustrating the legendary figure of Tarquinius Priscus, dating back to around 1475. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the story of the founder and fifth king of Rome, as recounted by Livy. In this scene on the left, we see Lucius Tarquinius accompanied by his wife Tanaquil and their court making their way to Rome. The focus is on Tanaquil herself, portrayed with grace and beauty in Flemish art style.
The tapestry is believed to have been possibly manufactured in Brussels, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship of Flemish artists during that era. Made from silk and wool with six threads per centimeter, it exemplifies luxury and sophistication typical of early modern European art.
Displayed at the Cathedral Museum in Zamora, Spain, this piece not only serves as a decorative artwork but also as a historical artifact reflecting the opulence and grandeur of ancient Roman society. Through this print captured by Maeyaert/AIC, we are transported back in time to witness a moment from antiquity filled with intrigue and elegance.
