EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite tapestry titled "L'audience de l'empereur chinois" by Jean II Barraband, a renowned artist of the 18th century. Created around 1715, this masterpiece is an exemplary representation of French art during the Baroque period. Displayed at the Liechtenstein Museum in the Principality of Liechtenstein, this tapestry is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail that characterized this era. Made from luxurious materials such as wool, silk, and threads of gold and silver, it exudes opulence and grandeur. The scene depicted in this artwork transports us to ancient China. We witness an audience with the Chinese emperor where various figures are present – men dressed in elaborate robes adorned with vibrant colors, women holding sunshades to shield themselves from sunlight, children representing youth and innocence. The presence of a majestic peacock adds a touch of exoticism to the composition. Barraband's mastery lies not only in his ability to capture human figures but also in his skillful rendering of animals and their natural beauty. This tapestry captures a moment frozen in time – one can almost feel the reverence shown towards royalty through prostration. Through this photo print, we are invited into a world rich with history and cultural exchange between France and China during the 18th century. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been instrumental in bridging gaps between different civilizations throughout time.
