The Hunt of the Unicorn is a seven-part series that features a group of hunters and noblemen chasing after the unicorn. This European tapestry was said to have been requested by Anne of Brittany to celebrate her union with then King of France, Charles VIII. John Rockefeller, Jr. eventually bought this work of art in 1922 from the La Rochefoucauld family from France, who owned it for several centuries, for the exorbitant amount of around $1 million. In 1937, Rockefeller, Jr. donated the artwork to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA, where it remains on display to this very day.

Aside from representing the virtues mentioned in the wall decor above, the unicorn would also sometimes represent Jesus Christ himself. This acquired symbolism gave the Unicorn a revered place in medieval European society, making it a popular subject of the many different works of art that were produced during the said time period. One particular art form that often made use of a unicorn as its subject matter is the decorative wall art known as the tapestry. Unicorn tapestries became one of the most popular works of art produced during the medieval ages.
