"Arabesques from a set of three or more pieces" is a tapestry woven by Andien de Clermont in the early 18th century. It is a fine example of the Rococo style, characterized by its delicate floral motifs, swirling lines, and pastel colors. The tapestry features a central urn filled with flowers, flanked by a parrot and an owl. The intricate design is framed by a border of scrolling foliage and floral bouquets. This tapestry is currently on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
