EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of The Pastrana Tapestries, a masterpiece of Flemish art depicting the Assault on Asilah. Created between 1471-1475 in the manufacturing workshop of Tournai, most likely by Passchier Grenier, these tapestries showcase the skill and craftsmanship of the artists from that era.
The scene depicted in this particular cloth shows trumpets heralding the arrival of Prince John during the conquest of Asilah and Tangier in 1471 by Alfonso V of Portugal. The vibrant colors and detailed designs bring to life a historic battle scene, showcasing armored soldiers ready for confrontation on the battlefield.
Measuring an impressive 369 x 1099 cm, this tapestry is part of a series housed at Museo Parroquial de Tapices de Pastrana in Guadalajara, Spain. Each thread tells a story of war, royalty, and Arab civilization in North Africa during that time period.
As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back to late 15th century Europe, where tapestries were not just decorative pieces but also historical records woven with precision and care. The legacy of these magnificent works continues to captivate viewers centuries later with their timeless beauty and rich cultural significance.
