Franco Flemish tapestry fragment • circa 1500

#14260

Figure in a church yard before a holly bush the towered church in background • Part of a late medieval tapestry previously removed and framed. The Latin inscription is yet to be read. The dating inclines more towards late 15th cent than early 16th cent.

Condition: Restored on several occasions. The woven Red border is not original but woven sympathetically as a part of the structure (rather than an add on).
