This 18th Century needlework consists of raised and padded silver thread on magenta silk to create an organic flowing design of the parable Matthew 6:28 (The Lilies of the Field and the Birds of the Air), as well as a partially-perished Crucifixion scene as the central motif. Religious needlework done unto the glory of God was of the highest quality, thus this style of rich embroidery has long been used in ecclesiastical vestments and altar draping.

The artwork is a high-quality art print of an original antique textile, produced by scanning unique, fine art textiles from a range of periods and origins at an ultra-high resolution in order to capture every detail of the one-of-a-kind pieces.
You'll receive your print on either fine art paper or cotton canvas. Both of which work perfectly to capture the fine details and subtle colours of large, full-colour images. Resulting in stunning works of art that truly encapsulate the charm of the original piece.
