The Boccara Gallery is among the oldest in this field and has always been daring in building up its collections.
Didier Marien has reunited this collection over the years, this one reflects his taste for this multi-secular art. Tapestries have always played an important role, reflecting the elegance, knowledge and power of the one who possessed them. Today tapestries have a more decorative and historical role. A tapestry creates an atmosphere and gives off an atmosphere that no other object can bring. This collection is a selection of the most original pieces, and the rarest, having gone through the centuries without suffering the damage of time.
