Leaving for the hunt Tapestry from the Manufacture Royale d'Aubusson, part of the Tenture des Chasses Royales of Louis XV Based on a design by Jean-Baptiste Oudry (1686-1755) Mid-18th century Woven in wool and silk H. 2.54 - L. 4.00 m AC The tapestry retains its bright colors and its original frame-like border. It shows areas of wear, notably in the silks, and old restorations. It is reduced in height (with a fold under the border of approx. 34 cm) and probably in width. Jean Baptiste Oudry first worked at the Manufacture Royale de Beauvais, created in 1664 by Colbert. He became director of the Manufacture in 1734 and worked there until his death in 1755. From 1726 to 1736, he supplied designs for six hangings, including the Chasses Nouvelles (1726), based on old cartoons. He reorganized the Manufacture and created a drawing school for tapestries. Two years after his debut at the Manufacture de Beauvais, Louis XV asked him to follow him on his hunts. This resulted in the commission for the Tenture des Chasses Royales de Louis XV, which was woven at the Manufacture Royale des Gobelins from 1736 to 1750, and includes nine tapestries, such as La Chasse au Cerf and La Mort du Cerf. The cartoons were then rewoven in various factories, notably Brussels and Aubusson. This charming tapestry depicts the hunting party of Louis XV and his court. The king, depicted in the center of the composition, is surrounded by his court in the heart of one of the royal estates. On the right, two men with horns sound the start of the hunting party.
