Notes
Square panel from a linen tunic, woven in purple and drab silk. A roundel enclosing a conventional tree with two hares at the foot, a bird on each side pecking at the fruit, and two boys in the branches with pruning knives. The band outlining the roundel has a succession of small floral devices. It was united on four sides to similar roundels by small circles, which together with the itnervening spaces, contained floral ornament.
