Georges Braque “Pélias et Nélée (pink version)” Tapestry
Created by the skilled weavers at the Moulin de Vaudoboyen workshop in Bièvres, the “Pélias et Nélée” tapestry is the sixth in a series of eight, offering a reimagined version of the 1958 gouache. This particular rendition features a soft pink color palette, transforming the original composition with a fresh, delicate tone while preserving its essence.
The tapestry stays true to the intricate details and vibrant energy of the gouache, while the new color scheme adds a unique and atmospheric depth. Each thread is carefully woven, translating the brushstrokes of the original painting into a tactile, textured form. The result is a stunning tapestry that faithfully captures the spirit of Braque’s artwork, with the added richness and dimension that only tapestry can provide. - More Information
