Millefleurs Tapestry with Medici Coat of Arms

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Millefleurs Tapestry with Medici Coat of Arms features a predominantly dark background with intricate floral patterns. The tapestry's background is dark blue with green, beige, and pink floral designs throughout. Two symmetrical beige and red urns are centered on the tapestry. The urns are adorned with green and feature a shield with a blue circle on a white or beige background; one shield has a red design, while the other has what appears to be three white shapes on a red background. The tapestry is framed by a thin green border with a red outline and a thicker outer border with a repeating pattern of small flowers and geometric shapes. The borders are predominantly red, beige, and green. The tapestry appears to be rectangular. The image shows the tapestry hanging.
