Notes
Portion of a shoulder-band from a linen tunic, tapestry-woven in coloured wools and undyed linen thread on linen warps. Groups of figures apparently intended to represent scenes from the Gospels. In the lower part is a seated figure with cruciferous nimbus (our Lord?) and a nimbed figure standing before Him. In the middle are three nimbed figures at a table on which is a fish, bread, and a cup (the Supper at Emmaus?). Figures from other scenes at the top. The ground is red. Borders of S-shaped floral scrolls on a white ground, with narrow geometrical edging in polychrome. cf: sleeve panel no. 278-1891
