The Unicorn Tapestries are among the most beloved and recognizable works of medieval art. They are frequently reproduced, parodied, used in decorating and cinema, and more. The Unicorn Tapestries reside at the Met Cloisters, the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s medieval collection in Fort Tryon Park, Manhattan. After my most recent visit to the Met Cloisters in July 2018, I wrote about the Unicorn Tapestries and some of the Cloisters’ other great medieval treasures for DailyArt Magazine. One of my articles was recently republished. Read them all at the links below.
