This tapestry, woven at the end of the XVth century in Flanders, tells a scene of the wine story. After the grape harvest and the filling up of the barrels, the lords sent their servants on the markets, in order to sell their annual production. The significant number of characters and colours give much life to this medieval scene. The original is today in the Decorative Arts museum, Paris.
