拍品專文

A closely related tapestry is in the collection of the Eindhoven town hall, depicting a stag hunt and featuring virtually identical borders. Guy Delmarcel (op. cit., p. 281) suggests it might have been part of a set of tapestries depicting 'The Life of Diana' or 'Diana's Hunts' that were exported to France by the Oudenarde weaver and merchand Frans de Moors.
