After connecting some parts of the tapestry to the discovery of the set in the Boussac castle, this essay proposes a reinterpretation of the subject, focusing on its literary sources. Particular attention will be given to the role of tapestry merchants in the spread of new or appreciated themes. Maybe a revised interpretation will reveal the appropriate name given to the collection during the XV and the XVI centuries – as we will now consider. |
