Abstract Tapestry is a luxury item before being a work of art. By the very fact of its function, tapestry undergoes transformations since all time. We cut or add borders, we cut large format tapestry into several pieces, and then, we re-sew them, all of this acts to put them to the dimension of surfaces that the tapestry must cover. This presentation would like to dwell on a particular case of a "tinkered" tapestry, the example of which is very useful today for the art historian to understand the phenomenon of usage, far from the notion of heritage we have today. What could be considered wasteful is actually reuse. What appears as vestiges of the past can also be useful for finding lost original compositions. Relying on archival documents, this is what I propose to do from a tapestry woven at the Beauvais Manufactory in the late eighteenth century.

“修补”挂毯的案例研究

摘要挂毯在成为艺术品之前是一种奢侈品。就其功能而言，挂毯自古以来都在经历变革。我们切割或添加边框，我们将大幅面挂毯切成几块，然后重新缝制它们，所有这些都是为了使它们达到挂毯必须覆盖的表面尺寸。本次演讲将重点讨论“修补”挂毯的一个特殊案例，该案例对于今天的艺术史学家理解使用现象非常有用，这与我们今天拥有的遗产概念相去甚远。可能被认为是浪费的实际上是重用。过去的痕迹也可用于寻找丢失的原始作品。依靠档案文件，
