73700 Francois Boucher Reproduction Tapestry, 07'04 X 07'05. The Cherry Harvest: A Louis XIV Tapestry of Rococo Romance Drawing inspiration from François Boucher’s La Cueillette des Cerises (The Cherry Picking, Paris, 1703–1770), this handwoven Louis XIV–style tapestry celebrates the tender playfulness of French pastoral life. Woven with exquisite attention to color and movement, it captures the golden spirit of 18th-century leisure, when love and beauty flourished amid the serenity of the countryside. This reproduction is both homage and art — a tribute to Boucher’s world of elegance, flirtation, and idyllic escape, translated into wool and texture for the modern connoisseur. At its heart, the composition portrays a charming moment of courtly amusement: a young man perched on a ladder tosses ripe cherries to two delighted maidens below, their laughter and grace mirrored in the gentle sway of their dresses. Each figure exudes a sense of refined spontaneity, as if suspended in the perfect afternoon of an endless summer. The soft hues of blush, ivory, and verdant green unfold like a Rococo sonnet, where nature and affection intertwine in delicate balance. Behind them, a chateau rises in the distance, framed by lush foliage and blossoms that seem to breathe with life. The setting is more than decorative — it is theatrical, composed to transport the viewer into the pleasure gardens of the French aristocracy. Every petal and tree is woven with painterly precision, capturing the ethereal light and intimacy that defined Boucher’s artistic universe. Encased within an ornate border of floral garlands, architectural scrolls, and strapwork cartouches, this tapestry embodies refinement and opulence. Though newly woven, it carries the spirit of an 18th-century salon — timeless, romantic, and irresistibly French. Displayed in a grand salon, music room, or formal sitting area, The Cherry Harvest transforms its surroundings into a sanctuary of grace and gaiety, inviting the viewer to indulge in a moment of pure, aristocratic delight. Inspired by 'La Cueillette des Cerises', The Cherry Picking by Francois Boucher Abrash. Hand-woven wool. Made in China. Measures: 07'04 x 07'05. Pile Height: 0.24 of an inch. Brand New. In-Stock.
