Fox and Chave Cluny Tapestry Red Silk Tie
Fox and Chave Cluny Tapestry Red Silk tie.
A Fox & Chave silk tie with a design derived from elements of the 6 tapestries known collectively as the Lady and the Unicorn created around the year 1500, and currently housed in the Musée de Cluny in Paris, France.
Often considered among the greatest works of art from the Middle Ages, the tapestries are rich in symbolism and widely believed to represent the five senses, with the sixth tapestry interpreted as a representation of love or understanding.
They were likely commissioned by a member of the noble Le Viste family, whose coat of arms appears in the tapestries. They were created for display in a domestic setting, probably to celebrate the family’s status and values.
