A striking Mortlake tapestry17th century, probably based on the etchings of Salvator Rosa (Italian, 1615-1673)Woven in wools and silks, designed with a scene from the life of Diogenes, probably 'Diogenes Beside his Barrel' the Mortlake shield to lower edge on the right hand side, the inscription to the top edge translated to 'Let him who wants this house bury me,' the animalistic figure of the eccentric philosopher Diogenes to the right hand side and the standing bearded male standing to the left in front of a hill-top citadel, the whole enclosed by elaborate acanthus leaf and cabochon border, on brown ground,268cm x 181cmFootnotes:For a similar example see Christies, Lot 27, 15 December 2017.The philosopher Diogenes of Sinope (412/403-324-321 BC) was considered one of the founding fathers of cynicism. Known for his eccentric lifestyle, Diogenes became synonymous with principles of individualistic freedom and self sufficiency. The 'Diogenes' tapestries were woven at Mortlake towards the end of the 17th century. While other surviving examples, most notably the Dyrham tapestries, do not have the maker's mark of the red cross on the white shield, the present lot does include this. We can definitely date the tapestries to post 1662 when Salvator Rosa's etching were first published. The earliest record of the tapestries date from 1683 when a set of the 'Dioguines hangings' were bought for Charles II. Numerous sets and partial sets of 'Diogenes' tapestries survive including, within the National Trust's collections, two tapestries at Dyrham Park, Gloucestershire (454596-7), a single panel of 'Plato's Academy' in the Chapel at Chirk Castle, Wrexham (no. 1171322), and a fragment, mentioned above, from 'Diogenes Discarding his Cup' at Llanerchaeron, Ceredigion (no. 548684).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
