The 'Aristoloches' or 'large leaves' tapestries were in fashion in the middle of the XVIth century. They were mostly woven in the highly praised mills of Audenaerde (Flanders, Belgium). This particular one depicts tobacco leaves, which Colombus had brought back from his voyage and soon to be widely used in Europe.
The tapestry is fully lined with a durable cotton fabric, ensuring both strength and structure. A rod pocket is conveniently provided at the top for easy hanging, making it simple to display your piece with elegance and stability.
