OFFERING THE HEART
Here is the famous tapestry of Arras. It is well representing of the courteous love of the Middle Ages. Suits are processed with grace and wealth. An informal aspect is given thanks to the presence of the small dog that jumps on legs of its mistress. Rabbits remind the bucolic tendency of the period. The holly is joy symbol and happiness.
