Wall Tapestry Medieval is an abstract homage to the refined world of the Middle Ages—a time of grandeur and restraint, of muted tones and lavish ornamentation. Inspired by the elegance of historic castles and their richly detailed interiors, this tapestry captures the quiet magnificence of a past where craftsmanship and aesthetics were inseparable.
The atmosphere of places like Château de Chenonceau—its architectural grace, floral arrangements, and narrative gobelins—forms the emotional foundation of this work. Vertical lines and soft, tufted arches suggest flowers, columns, vaults—a stylized echo of what once existed in stone, textile, and gilded leaf.
Rather than a literal depiction, the tapestry offers a contemporary translation of a timeless ambiance: understated opulence, attention to detail, and the layered richness of a culture in which art, and life were deeply intertwined. In Wall Tapestry Medieval, this spirit is made tangible once again – captured in wool, rythm, and color.
