EDITORS COMMENTS
This Flemish tapestry, titled "Vertumnus transformed into a harvester" is the first piece in a series known as "Series Vertumnus and Pomona". Created by the Model Circle of Pieter Coeck van Aelst and manufactured by Wilhelm Pannemaker in Brussels around 1545-1550, this exquisite artwork showcases the mastery of Flemish art during the 16th century. Measuring an impressive 430 x 539 cm, this tapestry is made from a combination of gold, silver, silk, and wool fabrics. It currently resides in the Royal Palace of Madrid's State Dining Room as part of National Heritage Series 16. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life an agricultural scene featuring a harvester amidst lush surroundings. The artist skillfully captures the essence of farming with meticulous attention to detail. From the mechanisms on the agricultural vehicle to farm tools such as threshing machines, every element adds depth and authenticity to this stunning composition. The use of gilding on golden metallic accents further enhances its grandeur. Displayed against a backdrop of white wool fabric, this tapestry exemplifies both technical expertise and artistic brilliance. Its presence within the Palacio Real de Madrid serves as a testament to its historical significance and enduring beauty. As viewers admire this remarkable piece, they are transported back in time to witness not only an agricultural scene but also appreciate the rich cultural heritage that flourished during Europe's Renaissance period.
