I've  seen the ones in the Cloisters, too. I'd forgotten about that,
probably  because it was part of a disastrous weekend when I broke up
with my  boyfriend while I was in grad school.
The ones in the Cloisters are "The Hunt of the Unicorn" and depict the  
savage slaying of a unicorn.  We took my daughter when she was  about 6 years 
old, and quite interested in unicorns to see them. Instead of  enjoying them, 
she became hysterical and began to cry in front of the tapestry  in which 
people were stabbing the unicorn. We had to carry her out of the room.  The 
Cluny Museum series is much more pleasurable and sedate, since it depicts  
the five senses, not unicornicide.
