Taste – no border
Lady with the Unicorn tapestries
The Taste tapestry wallhanging is one of the six Lady with the Unicorn tapestries, today woven in France. It shows a lady offered a dish of sweetmeats by her maidservant. She is looking at a parakeet on her left hand and a monkey sits at her feet eating a dropped sweetmeat. On either side of them are the lion and unicorn holding banners by two pairs of trees.
Today the Taste wallhanging is a French tapestry woven in 80% cotton and 20% viscose. It is lined, with a rod pocket for easy hanging. It is also available with the addition of a medieval-styled border (ref ME060).
Note: the above image shows the larger size. The smaller size has a slightly lighter colour.
