The manufacturing process used to produce these tapestries has remained basically the same for the last 200 years. These traditional tapestries are woven on jacquard mechanical looms in Flanders, the home of tapestry since medieval times. The Kiss (original Der Kuss) was painted by Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) during his ‘golden period’, and is probably his most famous work. It depicts a couple, bound up in various shades of gold and symbols, sharing a against a bronze background.
All tapestries are supplied with a cotton lining and an integral sleeve for the hanging pole.
