Doelger 4/27/1926 SS 7484. French & Co. received from Cecile B. Doelger, 10/9/1952; "returned to consigner" 9/28/1959 SS 52582. Landowner showing his wife & child (L, foreground); peasants shearing sheep (R, middle ground) (BRD) garland with fruit & hunting trophies; (UPR BRD) shield with 3 lions, surmounted by crown in center The whole tapestry has been extensively rewoven. In fact, apart from the borders, it seems a more modern reweaving than anything else. It may be a late 19th/20th century fake, built upon the borders & some fragments (Campbell). The composition is related to the "Months of Lucas" in the version of a Bruges series, now in Vienna, rather than in the Gobelins series (Cavallo). French & Co. s
