Description |
English: Thirty-sixth tapestry of the Apocalypse tapestry, in the third overall. Español: Trigésimo sexto tapicería del Tapiz del Apocalipsis. Français : Trente-sixième tapisserie de la tenture de l'Apocalypse, dans le troisième ensemble. Cette tapisserie est la première où les lissiers ont ajoutés des motifs à l'arrière-plan, jusque-là uni dans les tapisseries précédentes. Les motifs n'ont pas tous la même taille ; plus petits à gauche, ils s'agrandissent en allant vers la droite, montrant possiblement le travail de recherche des lissiers pour trouver la bonne taille de motifs. |

JPEG file comment | Hennequin de Bruges, French
Apocalypse, Saint Michael fighting the dragon c. 1380 Tapestry, height 430 cm Chateau d'Angers, Angers, France The most popular picture-books of the thirteenth century were those that illustrated St John's vision of the Apocalypse. The standard Apocalypse cycle, containing numerous scenes, was first developed in England. Those scenes were later used in creating other art forms, like the monumental tapestry woven in Paris for Louis d'Anjou. One element that was increasingly emphasized in both manuscript and monumental versions was St John himself, standing as a spectator within each of the scenes. He served to mediate the visionary experience for the beholder, sometimes looking through a window onto the action, but always registering an active response to what he is seeing.
