"Pre-raphaelite Tapestry : "dante's Dream""
"Dante's dream" tapestry / embroidery 81 X 120 cm, mounted in a carved wooden frame 95 X 134 cm.
There are objects or works for which we would like to go back in time to have them in their state of creation. Thus, this “rough attic” tapestry, in faded colors, the reverse of which indicates the splendor of the original ones, dusty and showing some lacks due to moths (see photo by transparency in the sun) and mounted in a slightly cussonné frame, certainly had to adorn a neo-Gothic house…
The painting from which it is inspired is well known to lovers of Pre-Raphaelism, it is precisely the “Dream of Dante” by Dante-Gabriel Rossetti in which we see the Florentine poet guided by an angel who holds her hand, join Beatrice's funeral bed, protected by a canopy held by two women, the angel kissing Beatrice for Dante who cannot do it ...
Without being encumbered with psychoanalytic interpretations, the However, this work gives us food for thought and dreams…
Monogrammed "M. de PM" I think it is and, if the painting is dated 1871, I think it was executed in the 1880s.
