ANTIQUE 18th CENTURY - EARLIER RELIGIOUS TEXTILE EMBROIDERED BANNER ICON SANTOS

ANTIQUE 18th CENTURY OR EARLIER, EMBROIDERED TEXTILE CHURCH VESTMENT HANGING BANNER WITH HAND PAINTED ICONS ON BOTH SIDES, MOUNTED ON HEAVY IRON BAR FOR HANGING. IT IS EMBROIDERED WITH METAL THREAD, GOLD AND SILVER AND WHAT I BELIEVE IS SILK. THERE IS A HAND PAINTED ICON CENTRAL MEDALLION ON EITHER SIDE; ONE IS A SEATED LAMB OF GOD WITH SHINING SUN AND THE SECOND IS VERY DARK BUT I CAN MAKE OUT TWO SAINT FIGURES WITH HALOS, I'M SURE IT COULD BE CLEANED. I AM NOT CERTAIN OF THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN BUT COULD BE FRENCH, SPAIN, PORTUGAL, ETC... THERE IS SOME WEAR , SOME MODERATE FRAYING OF THE METAL THREADS, STAINING ETC.... YOU DO NOT SEE PIECES LIKE THIS VERY OFTEN ANYMORE, IT IS A GREAT PIECE AND I BELIEVE COULD REALISTICALLY BE 17th CENTURY. 

MEASURES-   30" Long x 21.25" Wide  

THIS ORIGINAL ANTIQUE RELIGIOUS CATHOLIC CHURCH EMBROIDERED TEXTILE WITH PAINTED ICONS WILL MAKE AN EXCELLENT ADDITION TO YOUR COLLECTION.
