Notes
Panel from the sleeve of a linen tunic, tapestry-woven in coloured wools and undyed linen thread on linen warps. In the middle is a blue circle with our Lord enthroned. The panel on either side is divided horizontally into two parts. Those on the left contain respectively a group of figures (the Adoration of the Magi?) and two standing figures, one winged (the Annunciation?). On the right are: (1) a repetition of the second scene on the left; (2) a figure standing beside seven jars (the Miracle of Cana?). The ground is red. Borders of S-shaped floral scrolls on a white ground, with narrow geometrical edging in polychrome. cf: shoulder-band no. 2084-1900; perhaps from the same tunic.
