Vaux-Le-Vicomte is a genuine Jules Pansu tapestry. It is adapted from the wainscoting decorating the “Salle des Buffets” at the castle of Vaux-le-Vicomte. This castle, built between 1656 and 1661 for Nicolas Fouquet, Superintendent of Finance for Louis XIV, was the masterwork of three gifted Medieval Renaissance artists: the architect Louis Le Vau, André Le Nôtre for the gardens, and Charles Le Brun for the interior decoration. On this arabesque setting, inspired by the loggia style of Raphaël at the Vatican, one can see Fouquet’s emblem, a squirrel, a serpent. This tapestry is fully lined incorporating a rod pocket on the back for hanging.
