As part of the exhibition EAST to WEST, Reuber Henning is presenting Ladislaus as a limited edition tapestry based on a tragic love story from the 16th century.
A blue-flame leopard falls from the sky through the pitch black night, while the full moon rises above the event behind a veil of clouds and rain. What sounds like the scene from a legend is the motif of a new rug by Reuber Henning. The painting is based on the tragic story of Count Ladislaus von Fraunberg, who lost one woman to death and the second to a monastery. He died without heirs, distraught over his fate.
The textile collector's item is produced according to the design of Austrian product designer Laurids Gallée in a limited edition on request. sThe tapestry can be admired at Schloss Hollenegg for Design as part of the exhibition EAST to WEST, curated by Alice Stori Liechtenstein, and remains an integral part of Schloss Hollenegg's inventory.
