Daphnis and Chloe

Bring the romance of classical storytelling into your home with the 'Daphnis & Chloe' historic tapestry, inspired by a suite of six mid-late 18th-century Aubusson tapestries. Designed by Étienne Jeaurat (1699–1789), custodian of King Louis XV and XVI’s painting collections at Versailles, this tapestry suite is celebrated for its vibrant artistry and unique standing among Aubusson creations. Based on the pastoral Greek narrative by Longus, composed in the 2nd century A.D., the design captures the triumphs and tragedies of two young lovers, Daphnis and Chloe, set against a backdrop of idyllic landscapes.

This large tapestry makes a dramatic statement in any interior, whether displayed as a wall hanging or as a panoramic mural wallpaper. Our expert in-house studio can adapt the design to become a unique custom tapestry upon your request.
