Flemish verdure tapestry panels 17th century

Three Flemish verdure tapestry screen panels, woven in the 17th century. The 2 side panels are 16 inches wide x 63 inches long, and the center panel is 17 inches wide x 63 inches long. The center panel shows 2 ladies and 2 gentlemen making merry in the lavish garden of a country estate. A distant village can be seen near the top, and the fine house is at the bottom, flanked by the figures of Flora and Fauna. The side panels depict Diana the Huntress with her bow. The tapestries are in good condition with normal wear. Some details have muted over the centuries, but the colors are still rich. The panels can be hung as is, or they can easily be hinged to create a folding screen.

Thank you for your quick reply. I am really shocked at the price. I knew many people here wanted it, but probably figured I didn't know what I had and they wanted to buy it for nothing. I am glad I held on to it.
Thanks again!
