Notes
Portion of a linen cloth, faced with long loops; it has a square panel and part of a straight band, tapestry-woven in coloured wools, chiefly purple, and undyed linen thread. The panel contains a mounted huntsman and a running hound within a circle and has an interlaced border forming circles which enclose lions, flowering plants, and baskets containing roses. The band is similar to this border, but has a hare instead of the lions.
