A Flemish historical tapestry panel from the early 17th century, featuring the famed Roman general, Gaeus Marcius, now called Coriolanus, returning triumphantly from the battle in which he captured the Volscian town of Corioli, arriving on horseback with his Volscian prisoners in tow, and greeted by his domineering mother, Volumnia, as well as the cheering Roman townspeople. Enclosed within a broad border of fruit filled vases and female figures, interspersed with circular reserves incorporating allegorical scenes. Wool with silk inlay. Measures: 9’9” H x 10’6” W.

We now have a large selection of antique tapestry rods available as well, which we can provide detail upon request.
