Danae tapestry
Gustav Klimt wall tapestries
Danae was painted by Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) in 1907. The Danae tapestry from our Gustav Klimt wall tapestries selection shows the central motif with additional design. In this high quality Italian tapestry she is shown giving herself to Zeus, when he seduces her. She gives birth to their son Perseus who later accidentally kills her father the king of Argos. The original painting is at the Galerie Wurthle, Vienna.
This fine Art Nouveau tapestry is woven in cotton and has fine golden lurex threads added for extra detailing. It is fully lined, with a rod pocket added for easy hanging. We supply instructions for its hanging and care with each order.
