"Lady and the Unicorn" Tapestry - Framed Textile Art
Elegant woven tapestry inspired by the famous 15th-century "Lady and the Unicorn" series housed in the Musee de Cluny, Paris.

The deep red backdrop, ornate blue and gold garments, and intricate floral motifs create a sense of medieval romance and symbolism often associated with the five senses and spiritual awakening.
