Tapestry weave, silk and wool, France. Cleveland Museum of Art","se_ve":"The piece is a fireplace screen photographed from the front, in full, against a plain light-gray background. Its structure is a tall giltwood frame with a curved top, supported by two side uprights and two curved feet projecting forward at the base. The gilding, matte and aged, is carved with leaves, flowers, ribbons, and a central crest shaped like an oval shield flanked by garlands. At the center, a rectangular textile panel with rounded upper corners fills almost the entire space. Its ground is an intense salmon pink, and upon it opens, like an oval window, a country scene woven in cream tones, muted greens, blues, and pinks. A young woman leans toward the right, wearing a white cap, yellowish blouse, pink vest, and reddish skirt with a pale apron; she extends one hand toward a rooster with gray plumage and a red comb. At her feet, pale chicks peck at the ground; at left are a basket, implements leaning against a wall, and a small, barely defined animal figure. In the background are water, a rustic house, and a pale sky whose weave is visible. A dense garland of roses, fruit, leaves, and blue ribbons surrounds the scene. At lower right, a signature woven in dark thread can be read.","contexto":"According to the source, this fire-screen panel and frame were made around 1775 in France by the Gobelins Manufactory of Paris, founded in 1662. Jean-Baptiste Marie Hüet (1745–1811) and Maurice Jacques (1712–1784) participated, although the record does not specify which part each designed. It is woven in tapestry with silk and wool and belongs to the Textiles department of the Cleveland Museum of Art, through the bequest of John L. Severance. Such screens were placed before a fireplace to soften heat and light, and also served as decorative furniture. Idealized pastoral scenes were common in eighteenth-century French art; whether this represents a specific place or story is unknown.","como_mirarla":"First look at the embroidered garland and notice how finely the lacework has been made. Then let your eyes drift to the ridge: the elegant winding makes the water look calmer than it is. Finally, dwell on the right side, where an indistinct dark form interrupts the serenity.","dato_curioso":"The dark signature at lower right was not painted afterwards: it is part of the weaving itself, formed by the same warp and weft as the figures and flowers.","preguntas":["What does the contrast between the idealized peasant woman and the luxurious gilt frame say about the tastes of those who used this object?","How does your reading of the country scene change when you remember that it stood before a fire, between the flames and the room?","What effect does the double frame produce—the carved wood outside and the garland of flowers inside?"]},"es":{"titulo":"Panel y marco de pantalla de chimenea, hacia 1775. Tapicería de seda y lana, Francia. Cleveland Museum of Art","se_ve":"La pieza es una pantalla contra chimenea fotografiada de frente, completa, sobre un fondo gris claro y liso. Su estructura es un marco alto de madera dorada, de parte superior curva, sostenido por dos montantes laterales y dos pies curvos que se adelantan en la base. El dorado, mate y envejecido, está tallado con hojas, flores, lazos y una cresta central en forma de escudo ovalado flanqueado por guirnaldas. En el centro, un panel textil rectangular de esquinas superiores redondeadas ocupa casi todo el espacio. Su fondo es rosa salmón intenso y sobre él se abre, como una ventana ovalada, una escena campestre tejida en tonos crema, verdes apagados, azules y rosas. Una joven inclinada hacia la derecha, con cofia blanca, blusa amarillenta, chaleco rosa y falda rojiza con delantal claro, extiende una mano hacia un gallo de plumaje gris y cresta roja. A sus pies picotean polluelos claros; a la izquierda se distinguen una cesta, utensilios apoyados en un muro y una pequeña figura animal apenas definida. Al fondo hay agua, una casa rústica y un cielo pálido de trama visible. Rodea la escena una densa guirnalda de rosas, frutas, hojas y lazos azules. Abajo a la derecha se lee una firma tejida en oscuro.","contexto":"Según la fuente, es un panel y marco de pantalla de chimenea realizados hacia 1775 en Francia por la Manufactura de los Gobelinos de París, fundada en 1662.

Está tejido en tapicería con seda y lana y pertenece al departamento de Textiles del Cleveland Museum of Art, por legado de John L. Severance. Estas pantallas se colocaban frente a la chimenea para atenuar el calor y la luz, y también como mueble decorativo.

There are no stars or constellations, it is a daytime sky, calm above the water and the rustic house.

The contrast between the real fire and the quiet woven landscape creates a sense of calm, typical of the Rococo taste for idealized pastoral life.","es":"Aunque es una escena campestre, miro el cielo pálido tejido al fondo.
