The symbolic meaning suggested in the "Hunt of the Unicorn" series of tapestries is the Annunciation.
The "Hunt of the Unicorn" is a very famous series of seven tapestries from the period of 1495-1505. The theme of the tapestries involves a group of noblemen and hunters who are chasing a unicorn. There has been a lot of debate around the meaning of the paintings and many believe that it is an allegorical representation of the Christian celebration of the Annunciation, where the Angel Gabriel announced to the Virgin Mary that she would conceive and become the mother of Jesus.
