Notes Part of a series of seven tapestries esigned by Cornelis Schut and woven in the Brussels workshop.The series was very popular and repeatedly produced in Bruges workshops - as we know from surviving tapestries bearing the mark of this city - with three different versions of the borders. The borders on the five tapestries from the series in the Hermitage have male and female figures in complicated poses, and children with cornucopias, which are unlike the borders on true products of Bruges. In the centre of the upper border is a cartouche with the inscription: Artes Deprifit bellum agvibus sustinatus ("War oppresses the arts which support it"), also designed by Cornelis Schut. Brussels archives record that in 1661 Jan Leyniers (1628-1687) was accorded the right to produce this series, and it is possible that the Hermitage tapestries should be seen as his work. This allows us to date the tapestries to the second half of the 17th century. Another argument in favour of a Brussels origin is the difference in colour to works by Bruges masters, the latter tending to be characterized by a daring combination of bright lilacs, violets and purples not found in Brussels products.
