Close ups of the Pavia Tapestries
 

To my amazement I found out the that the incredible Pavia tapestries were being displayed in my home of Houston, Texas at The Museum of Fine Arts. For those that don't know, the tapestries were made just a few years after the battle itself which occurred in 1525, making them nearly 500 years old. Each of the seven tapestries are massive, weighing over one hundred pounds each and measuring 28ft by 14ft (8.5m by 4.25m). I ended up taking way too many pictures but I hope that some of you may enjoy a few favorites. While these pieces are basically propaganda, the weapons and clothing pictured are amazing.

Thank you for posting your photos. Impressive photography skills, BTW.

I had only ever seen images of the the tapestries in their entirety. It's way more impressive to take in the individual stories playing out within them.

And thank you for the compliment on the photography. It's just my phone but I'd love a Hasselblad to take some real photos.
