Chenonceau Castle
This Pansu
wall-hangings depicts the famous Château de Chenonceau.Standing on the River Cher, France, the Château de Chenonceau is probably the most celebrated château of the many that are situated in the Loire Valley. Used as a working mill in the early Middle Ages, the château, which was built by Thomas Bohier in 1513, spans the whole width of the river, seeming to float on water. Often referred to as the Château de Femmes and owned by a succession of powerful noblewomen – including Henri II’s mistress Diane de Poitiers, the Queen Regent Catherine de Medici and her daughter-in-law Louise de Lorraine – its developing style and décor benefited from their grace and charm. The interior is well known for its elegant 59m-long (194ft) gallery, for the library used by Catherine de Medici, and for the famous guard room. Visitors can also see Francois I’s bedroom, Louis XIV’s living room and Diane de Poitiers’s bedroom. The castle was purchased by Henri Menier in 1913 and is still owned by his descendants to this day.
This tapestry is lined and has a tunnel for ease of hanging.
