17th French Aubusson Pillow Of A Classical Portrait Inside A Roundel

A 17th century French Aubusson tapestry fragment depicting a classical figurehead in a roundel of flowers and foliage. This piece is an excellent rendition of a Wedgwood blue jasper bisque portrait in a woven tapestry. Edged with an 18th century silk, silver and gold galon scalloped trim from Brussels and finished with a dark patina gold metal fringe trim. Backed with silver/gray silk velvet.  

Condition: Old repairs done in white rather than blue around the figurehead ground. One old repair on the bottom of tapestry that pulled the ground weave but doesn’t detract from the overall front design. Otherwise in wonderful condition for age; colors are in bright, fresh condition.
