Linen, embroidered with polychrome silks in brick, long and short, stem and tent stitches. Edged with silk fringing, alternating blue and yellow. Three figures; male supplicant, monarch? (holding orb and sceptre) and female figure. In technique and dimentions they appear to be related to three small cushion covers or panels in the Feller collection which illustrate the story of Tobias.
