Medieval tapestries are the key category in our wide range of European tapestry wall-hangings. This is a surprise to some but French tapestries in the medieval period formed the birthplace of this art and many have proved their timelessness. If in doubt, visit the Musée national du Moyen Âge in Paris, the Cluny Museum, whose treasures include many medieval tapestry masterpieces including The Lady with the Unicorn series.
In our tapestry blog we discuss these, from the 11th century Bayeux Tapestry to early 16th century tapestries.
