Hunters in a Landscape. Artist: Partly based on a woodcut by Jost Amman (Swiss, Zurich before 1539-1591 Nuremberg). Culture: British, probably London. Designer: Anonymous designer. Dimensions: H. 70 7/8 x W. 181 7/8 in. (180 x 462 cm); Weight (rolled on tube): 38lb. (17.2367kg). Maker: Woven by Anonymous Flemish weavers. Date: ca. 1575-95.This extremely rare hanging combines an exquisitely well-preserved palette with the distinctive long and narrow format of a wainscot tapestry. In a style referred to by Flemish weavers at the time as "English fashion", it was intended to hang between the cornice and the dado of a wood-paneled room. The tapestry is attributed on stylistic, iconographic and technical grounds to Flemish immigrant weavers who sought refuge from the religious tumult of the era by relocating to England, probably London. In excellent condition, it is a particularly engaging example of the output of this fascinating and only recently studied diaspora of weavers from Flander
