The Unicorn Tapestries were also featured in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, currently on Netflix: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iR4g9cDS4Tc/VJOqRvkbCNI/AAAAAAAAAkc/LQ2MkqAICjU/s1600/vlcsnap-00103.png http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iR4g9cDS4Tc/VJOqRvkbCNI/AAAAAAAAAk... Perhaps due to the tapestries’ association with the Rockefellers? Gundam writers have long played with themes of powerful families who direct world events in secret, such as through Gundam Wing’s fictional “Romefeller Foundation”: https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Romefeller_Foundation https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Romefeller_Foundation

The tapestry in that image is from a different set (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lady_and_the_Unicorn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lady_and_the_Unicorn). The set at the Cloisters is this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunt_of_the_Unicorn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunt_of_the_Unicorn

  Whoops! Thanks for the correction. It seems unicorns aren't so rare after all.
