Fiziksel açıklama
Square panel from an undyed linen cushion or cover. The plain woven ground fabric has been faced with long loops of undyed linen. In the centre is a tapestry woven panel in purple dyed wool and undyed linen thread. The panel consists of a central roundel with a horseman and rabbit, within a square border with leaves in the intervening spandrels. Surrounding this is a border formed of ten interlocking smaller roundels, each containing a rabbit or lion in purple wool, with tongues picked out in red wool.
