Nicole de Reyniès1 editions

Isaac Moillon (1614‑1673) was a prominent French tapestry painter whose works were produced for the royal court and displayed in the Aubusson workshops. Nicole de Reyniès’ monograph offers a comprehensive study of Moillon’s artistic career, tracing his development from early commissions to his later, more mature pieces. The book examines the stylistic evolution of his narrative paintings, the technical aspects of tapestry production, and the broader cultural context of 17th‑century France. Through detailed analysis of surviving works, archival documents, and contemporary accounts, the author situates Moillon within the tapestry tradition of Aubusson and the artistic milieu of the French court. The volume also discusses the exhibition history of Moillon’s pieces, providing insight into how his legacy has been interpreted over time. With 335 pages and an ISBN of 2850568856, this scholarly work serves as a key resource for historians of art, textile specialists, and anyone interested in the intersection of visual narrative and fabric craftsmanship during the early modern period.
