Tapisserie de l’Apocalypse/ Apocalypse tapestry -«…une femme enveloppée du soleil, la lune sous ses pieds, et une couronne de douze étoiles sur sa tête.»
The Apocalypse Tapestry is a medieval French tapestry commissioned by Louis I, the Duke of Anjou, and produced between 1377 and 1382. It depicts the story of the Apocalypse from the Book of Revelation by Saint John the Divine in rich and colourful images, spread over a number of sections. Despite being lost and mistreated in the late 18th century, the tapestry was recovered and restored in the 19th and is now on display at the Chateau d’Angers. It is the oldest French medieval tapestry to have survived.
