EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Brussels allegorical tapestry depicting the month of December. Created around 1525 by Bernaert van Orley, or an artist from his circle, this wool and silk masterpiece is part of The Medallion Months series. Intricately woven with exquisite detail, the tapestry portrays a scene of bustling activity during the winter month. To the left, we witness a butcher and his helper blood-letting a boar while a woman assists them. Nearby, two boys hold torches as they converse with their maid and her master and mistress. To the right, a group gathers around a roaring fire to keep warm in the cold weather. Above them hovers December personified as FOLUS, surrounded by playful putti blowing gusts of wind across the sky filled with clouds and snowflakes. The tapestry's circular frame features winged putti-faces along its edges and centers on a medallion showcasing a ram inscribed with "DECEMBRE". Additional elements include depictions of Aquilon (the North Wind), birds in flight within woodland scenes, and individuals capturing birds in bags and cages. Restored over time to preserve its beauty, this remarkable artwork also boasts ribbon-tied garlands adorned with flowers and fruits along its border. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this historical treasure that now resides in private collection.
