MUO-014862: Tapiserija "Zima": tapiserija

Tapiserija s alegorijskim prikazom Zime pripada seriji pod nazivom Četiri godišnja doba, od koje Muzej posjeduje još i Jesen. Izrađena je u manufakturi Pietera van der Hecka, prema kartonima Ludwiga van Schoora (1666. - 1726.), u vrijeme kada je briselska proizvodnja tapiserija bila pod izrazitim utjecajem Rubensa. U središtu kompozicije su ženski krilati lik – alegorija mjeseca siječnja i bradati muškarac koji predstavlja zodijakalni znak Vodenjaka. Ženski lik desno, koji sjedi uz pozlaćenu posudu s vatrom, personificira zimu; krilati lik lijevo prikazan je s jarcem – zodijačkim znakom mjeseca prosinca. Sasvim desni, izdvojeni ženski lik – personifikacija mjeseca veljače, prikazan je sa svojim zodijačkim znakom – ribama. Izvorno je bordura imitirala okvir slike s malim ugaonim školjkastim kartušama i nizom jako povijenih listova akantusa. Međutim, na ovoj tapiseriji ona je naknadno sužena na sve četiri strane, te je tako izrezana signatura koja se u pravilu nalazi uz borduru. Vrlo slična tapiserija s identičnim ikonografskim sadržajem nalazi se u Muse´es Royaux d’Art et d’Histoire u Bruxellesu. Tapiserija je bila u dvorcu Pribislavcu kraj Čakovca. U muzejskom fundusu nalazi se od 1919. godine. • A tapestry with an allegorical depiction of Winter belongs to the series called the Four Seasons, the Autumn from which is also owned by the Museum. It was made in the manufactory of Pieter van der Heck after cartoons by Ludwig van Schoor (1666-1726) at the time when Brussels tapestry making was very much influenced by Rubens. In the centre of the composition is a winged female figure – an allegory of January, and a bearded man representing the sign of the zodiac Aquarius. The female figure to the right, seated alongside a gilt vessel with fire, personifies winter; the winged figure to the left is shown with a he-goat – the zodiacal sign for December, or Capricorn. Far right a separate female figure, personification of February, is shown with her sign, Pisces. Originally the border imitated the frame of a painting, with little shell-shaped cartouches at the corners and a series of very bent acanthus leaves. However, on this tapestry it was later reduced at all four sides, and so the signature that is regularly found alongside the border was cut out. A very similar tapestry with identical iconographic contents is kept in the Musćes Royaux d’Art et d’Histoire in Brussels. The tapestry once belonged in Pribislavec Castle near Čakovec. It has been in the holdings of the Museum since 1919.
