I have the same tapestry it belonged to my Grandparents and hung in their dining room when I was a child. It's fascinating to see at least two others exist on the web.
By the beginning of the 19th Century technology had advanced sufficiently to enable machines to create tapestries. There followed a vogue for such pieces and large numbers were made in classic styles. Most of these were made in
muted colors to achieve the effect of age. Factories for these tapestries were usually located around Paris and in Northern France (or Belgium). Most of these tapestries look older than they really are, depicted the work of well known 18th Century artists or depicted scenes from legends. Based on your images your piece is a 20th Century item . Most sell at auction for under $150.00.
