拍品專文

The original and extremely popular series illustrating 'The Story of Vertumnus and Pomona’, consisting of nine subjects, was designed by Jan Conelisz Vermeyen (1500 - 1559) circa 1545 while the cartoons were prepared by Joos van Noevele.

The series remained popular into the 17th Century and was repeated by weavers such as Martin Reymbouts (active circa 1570-1619). The signature on this tapestry is that of Jacob I or Jacob II Geubels (d. 1605 and d. circa 1629, respectively), who appear to have used the same monogram. A further panel from this series, and possibly this set, depicting 'Vertumnus disguised as a Fisherman’ with identical borders and also bearing the same monogram is in the Detroit Institute of Art, Michigan.
