Medieval Art dates back to the Renaissance and Arts and Crafts period. Medieval art tapestries were woven on plush fabrics for hundreds of years by diverse cultures and were symbols as much as they were items for practical use, providing insulation for castle walls, covering openings as hangers, and giving privacy around beds. Kings and nobles took their family tapestry on their travels from castle to castle for reasons of comfort and prestige.

Renaissance tapestry art began in the early sixteenth century. The purpose of Renaissance pictorial art in woven tapestries was to produce illusions of what reality should be. The artist Raphael and his Renaissance School of Ancient Roman Art, in actuality, gave rise to the Renaissance tapestry art style in the early sixteenth century. Original antique tapestry pieces can range from a few thousand dollars to over $200,000 for large high quality Renaissance pieces. Fortunately modern technology has allowed us to reproduce these artworks into affordable tapestries that range from $70 to $400.

Both ancient Egyptians and the Incas buried their dead in tapestry woven clothing. Important civic buildings of the Greek Empire, including the Parthenon, had walls covered with them. However, it was the French medieval weavers who brought the craft to fruition. Medieval tapestries and accessories are ideal to decorate your home or office with. Bring a touch of rich medieval history into your life.
