La Recolte Des Ananas I French Wall Tapestry – 58 in. x 88 in. Wool/cotton/others by Charlotte Home Furnishings Inc

La Recolte des Ananas, or The Pineapple Harvest, originates from a set of ten tapestries called The History of the Chinese Emperor that were initially made for the Rambouillet castle. At the end of the 17th century, Jesuit missionaries were returning from China with tales and knowledge that were to influence the royal courts of Europe. The tapestries, very exotic for the time, were commissioned by Louis Alexandre de Bourbon, son of the King Louis XIV, to the Beauvais Manufacture. This French wall art tapestry reproduction is surrounded by an ornate floral border adding an additional layer of lush imagery.
