Vintage Belgian Tapestry Fragment with Gentleman in Ornate Gold-Tone Frame
A marvelous mustache, a rose-colored coat, and a frame with all the flourish he deserves.
This vintage Belgian tapestry fragment features a distinguished gentleman whose face and mustache have a wonderfully Hercule Poirot quality. Soft, timeworn colors and woven texture lend the piece the romance of an old European interior.
His elaborate gold-tone frame is a treasure in its own right, with a dramatic crest, scrolling flourishes, and leafy ornament surrounding the rectangular tapestry fragment. Displayed beneath glass, the textile becomes a charming little portrait full of character.
Sourced from a beautiful Shavano Park estate in San Antonio, Texas, this piece would be handsome tucked into a bookcase, displayed beside leather-bound books, or layered on a chest with antique silver and other collected treasures.
