Rene Fumeron Aubusson Tapestry

About the Item

Mid-Century tapestry designed by Rene Fumeron (1921-2003) and woven at Atelier Pinton Freres in Aubusson, France. Woven in wool, it dates to 1964 and entitled "Comme La Lune". The artist's name is woven in the lower left corner and the monogram for the atelier is woven in the lower right corner. René Fumeron’s style was built on the principles of tapestry weaving reformed by Jean Lurçat. He was, however, distinguished among colleagues as the “Imagier” (image maker) of tapestry. His choice of subject matter including trees, branches, birds, fish complimented a strong sense of composition and admirable imagination. By using steep vertical lines, bold geometric forms and a strong palette, he was able to create transparency and harmony in his tapestry designs.
