Incredible large piece of needlework! Depicts St John the Baptist with the Lamb of God.
The figures are painted velvet cutouts and are surrounded by a very ornate floral decoration.
The embroidery is actually unfinished (you can see the pencil guidelines).
At the top its reads 'Pensionnat ST JOSEPH Raphele' at the bottom 'ST JEAN-BAPTISTE' with some other unreadable words.
The canvas edges are a bit damaged and darker.
The whole canvas has discoloured.
The velvet is getting a bit unstuck in places.
65 x 57 cm/ 25.5 x 22.4 inches
Thanks for visiting Cabinet de Merveilles!
