Cluny museum to Paris. Five panels represent the fives feel (taste, touch, view, hearing and smell); the sixth represents the desire. To the breadth of these representations is revealed with a lot nobility and distinction charms it the life stately. A traditional blue colors a flowery ground on pink bakground. The totality is strewn foliage and animated birds, monkeys, lapereaux... Very luminous stitched dresses and smooth lines enrich the soul. On each of the six pieces, them heraldic beasts, a Lion and a Unicorn, carry ecus and the banner to arms of Lord The Viste.
