Square panel from a linen cloth, faced with long loops; tapestry-woven in coloured wools, chiefly purple, and undyed linen thread. A Centaur within a circle; a border of stems forms four smaller circles enclosing a lion, a hare, a hound, and an antelope, and the intervening spaces are filled with baskets containing rose-blossoms.
