Notes
Square panel from a linen cloth, faced with long loops, tapestry-woven in coloured wools, chiefly purple, and undyed linen thread. A mounted archer and a hare within a circle; a border of stems forms four smaller circles enclosing boys, one holding a hare, another a duck, and two with shields; the intervening spaces are filled with baskets containing rose-blossoms.
