At this time, the loggers of the 15th and 16th centuries regularly represented work scenes in their tapestries, such as: "the lumberjacks", "the blacksmith" or "the work of wool". This “vendanges” tapestry represents the grape harvest, while other characters work around a press. Weaving with the "point d'halluin tapestry" - 77% wool, 20% cotton, 3% polyester unique expertise scenes of wine making from picking to pressing into tapestry among the works that have marked the history of tapestry in france, “les vendanges” is one of those which are, still today, very appreciated as evidenced by the various hangings which are inspired by it. This, like many creations dating from the 15th and 16th centuries – notably “the work of wool”, “the blacksmith” or “the woodcutters” – is presented as a representation of work scenes. The original work, a millefleurs, depicts lords and peasants during different stages of wine making, from harvesting the grape clusters (in the right part) to pressing (in the left part). Created by the ateliers bourguignons, the les vendanges tapestry is today kept at the cluny museum in paris. Reproduction of a very high quality old wall tapestry.
