This jacquard extract presents "The Taste" from the legendary Lady and the Unicorn series, showcasing one panel from the celebrated six-tapestry ensemble woven around 1500 in the Flemish regions. The composition explores the sense of taste through medieval allegory, where figures engage with symbolic elements that represent gustatory pleasure and the refinement of courtly culture. Part of a comprehensive sensory exploration that includes sight, sound, smell, and touch, this particular panel demonstrates how medieval artists conceptualized the relationship between physical sensation and spiritual meaning. The landscape format of 50 x 67 cm or 75 x 100 cm provides intimate scale perfect for appreciating the detailed symbolism embedded within the scene, from costume elements to architectural details that reflect period aesthetics. Woven from 72% cotton, 25% viscose, and 3% polyester with cotton lining and integral hanging system, this piece maintains authentic color reproduction of the original's complex palette while ensuring contemporary durability. Optional border finishing extends dimensions by 15cm for enhanced presentation. This work appeals to medieval art enthusiasts and those fascinated by how sensory experience was understood and depicted in historical European culture, offering a window into the sophisticated allegorical thinking that characterized Renaissance artistic expression.
