Esther makes her toilet. Troy, Jean François de (French, 1679-1752) (cartoon creator) [painter] Neilson, Jacques (French, b.1714-d.1788) (workshop) [weaver] dated 1764 Tapestry Materials/Techniques: unknown Culture: French Weaving Center: Paris Ownership History: Lord Foley (?). Baron Albert de Rothschild coll. at Halton Castle, England, 1900 (?). French & Co. Inscriptions: Woven signature in central field, lower right corner: NEILSON.ex.1764 In interior of classical palace with rich hanging draperies, a eunuch stands behind 7 female attendants preparing Esther to be presented to King Ahasuerus; richly embroidered clothes, a mirror, a box of jewels on table (R) & a basin with ewer are used to make Esther's toilet Borders missing (Soustelle). The present tapestry may be recorded in Fénaille p.22 & 38 as having been part of a set of 4 tapestries woven on low looms in the workshop of Jacques Neilson between 1761 & 1765. The set would have been executed for an English nobleman, Lord Foley & traced in 1900 to the collection of the Baron Albert de Rothschild at Halton Castle, England. However, Fénaille p.22 states that the set in question would have featured the border designed in 1738 by Pierre-Josse Perrot, also referred to as the first border. However, the present tapestry & the other three (also cataloged), do not have borders. This may mean that the borders were removed at a later date or that this set is not the one commissioned by Lord Foley (Campbell/Soustelle). The related work from the Château de La Roche-Guyon (cited below) is dated 1769, signed Audran & has no borders (Soustelle). The model for the cartoon is in the Louvre & is illustrated in Fénaille, opposite p.4. (Soustelle).
