This late Fifteenth Century tapestry depicts the
resurrected unicorn in captivity
and is the last in a series of seven known as "La Chasse a la
Licorne" ("The Hunt of the Unicorn")
that were posibly made for the marriage of Anne of Brittany to King
Louis XII of France in 1499,
were certainly among the possessions of the ducs de La Rochefoucauld
in the Seventeenth Century,
and are now at The Cloisters Museum in New York City.
