FALCONS BATH Red Blue Antique Mediaeval Tapestry Ceramic Tile

Digital elaboration of an antique tapestry 1400–1415 Netherland by Bulgan Lumini. Tapestry depicting courtly figures training a falcon is in good condition. At the centre of the tapestry, four luxuriously dressed figures are gathered in front of a rose trellis and flowering turf bench. The lady and the gentleman in the foreground, attended by courtiers behind them, are encouraging the falcon to bathe in the basin of water between them. Four additional figures at the corners, set against a flowering, or millefleurs ground, are also busy training falcons.
