One of the major projects embarked on since the demise of Plaza Mk I has been the Aubusson project to create tapestries based on illustrations by Tolkien. Shortly before hid=s death, Christopher attended the opening of an exhibition devoted to them at the Abbaye du Thoronet, not far from his home in Aups. Video of the event here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQmh_Sfq88Y
BTW, don't believe the date. Christopher died on 16 January 2020.

I remember this video; the tapestries are really impressive work, and seeing Christopher's reaction is something else. Aubusson had another video about the making of the tapestries which I found pretty interesting, too.
