DOM ROBERT (1907–1997). “L’escapade,” a detail from the tapestry “Le soleil pour témoin” (design from 1978). Wool tapestry produced by the Bauze workshops in Aubusson using the basse lisse technique; copy no. 4/6, signed in the lower right corner and monogrammed with the workshop’s initials in the lower left corner. Titled and signed by the artist on the Bolduc on the reverse. Height: 161 cm - Width: 158 cm Accompanied by its certificate of authenticity issued by Galerie INARD, dated October 17, 2000. We would like to thank Sophie GUÉRIN GASC, a member of the Scientific Committee of the Dom Robert Museum, for providing us with some additional details: The design was created in 1999 by the heirs of Dom Robert, the Benedictine community of Saint-Benoît d’En Calcat (Dourgne, Tarn), and woven by the Atelier de la Beauze in Aubusson (the new name for the Goubely workshop, following its acquisition by Dom Robert’s heirs, the legatees of Suzanne Goubely). The fabric features the letters “EC” woven into the weft—two inverted letters recalling the inverted “2G” of the Goubely-Gatien workshop’s mark.
