Forest Belgian Tapestry Wall Art

Forest is a Belgian made jacquard wall tapestry. King Sigismund Augustus of Poland (later to become Emperor), commissioned the original tapestries from Michiel Coxcie of Mechelen in the mid-16th century. They are now part of the state collection housed in the Wawelburcht Castle in Cracow. The series is called The Jagaloon Tapestries. Royal Hunting Woods, The Forest, Iris, Woody, Timberland, Underwood, Wooden Hills, and Woodland are all parts of a scene from this tapestry series. A lovely complement to the decor theme of any room setting.
