La Tapisserie du XXe siècle

Sébastien Meunier

With artists like Lurçat, Saint-Saëns, Léger, Dom Robert, Matégot or Calder, tapestry experienced a real renaissance in the 20th century, and Aubusson was its matrix.

From this traditional know-how, the cartoonists have known, whether they were figurative or abstract, how to create an eminently decorative art, reflecting its era, and whose large compositions with vibrant colors can be matched to the most bare interiors and the largest walls.

It's his passion for this art that Sébastien Meunier, specializing in buying and selling modern tapestries, wishes to share with you. You will thus find on this site an overview of our collections, offering the widest possible choice of 20th century tapestries.

All of the pieces on sale are hand-made, a large majority at Aubusson (incidentally, the Aubusson tapestry factory was listed as a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2009) on low-warp looms and produced in limited editions of 8 at the most. An added advantage for interested parties, tapestries are consequently rare and difficult to copy.

They can be seen by appointment in our gallery at 11bis, rue Drouot, Paris
