EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable tapestry titled "Founding of the city of Lyon: Lugdus grandson of Galathes, founder of Gaul". Created by the workshop of Arras in 1530, this exquisite piece is part of "The fabulous history of the Gaules" collection displayed at the departmental museum of Oise in Beauvais, France. In this scene, we witness Lugdus, the grandson of Galathes and Gaul's founder, standing proudly with his companions. Behind them lies Lyon, a magnificent city situated at the confluence where two great rivers meet - Rhone and Saone. The breathtaking view extends further to capture the majestic Alps mountains adorning the distant horizon. This artwork not only celebrates Lyon's rich historical roots but also pays homage to its natural surroundings. The tapestry beautifully captures every intricate detail from its noble subjects to their construction site backdrop. It serves as a testament to French artistry during the 16th century. As we delve into this photograph taken by Photo Josse for Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in Lyon's founding story. This image invites us to appreciate both artistic mastery and historical significance while reminding us that cities like Lyon have deep-rooted tales waiting to be discovered and cherished for generations to come.
