The Lady and the Unicorn tapestries were discovered in 1841 by
George Sand, the French novelist, and Prosper Meremee, a fellow
writer. The tapestries were acquired by the Musee de Cluny for a
pittance. They allegedly and simplistically depict Taste, Sight,
Touch, Smell, Hearing, To My Only Desire. Seven other Unicorn
tapestries date from 1495 to 1505 and hang in the Cloisters in the
Metropolitan Museum of Fine Art Medieval Collection. Not to be
confused with the Cluny Museum tapestries in Paris, these
tapestries depict and are referred to as The Hunt of the Unicorn.
This novel is about hidden messages and maps woven into the warp
and woof of these great tapestries.
