In silk and wool, the seats depicting the fables of La Fontaine after Jean-Baptiste Oudry, and the backs, including the fire screen, also after Jubier's country engravings (found in the oval paintings exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum in New York).
This is a rare and exceptional set of well-preserved tapestries.
Beautiful polychromy (it's rare to have tapestry silks in excellent condition, with remarkably fresh colors)
