A French 'Teniers' tapestry fragment, early 18th century, possibly Aubusson, with two rustic musicians standing on barrels, one playing bagpipes, in a verdant woodland setting, later backed, 187cm high, 135cm wide Provenance: Private Collection, The Manor House, Stanford in the Vale, Oxfordshire The present panel likely takes its inspiration from the rustic country celebrations painted by David Teniers the Younger, which provided popular source material for tapestry manufacture during the late 17th and 18th centuries. The motif of the bagpiper on a barrel appears in several of Teniers' paintings, including the 'Country Celebration' in the collection of the Museo del Prado, Madrid.
