Tapestry with Unicorn and BeastsMichael Coxcie, Willem Tons
This Flemish tapestry (c. 1565) in Palazzo Borromeo’s Tapestry Gallery was woven in Brussels after a design by Michael Coxcie and Willem Tons. It shows a unicorn attacked by beasts in a dense forest. Part of a larger cycle, the animals symbolize sin and chaos, while the unicorn embodies purity and divine redemption.
