Devotional Embroidery
A devotional needlepoint embroidery depicting Saint Anthony the Hermit, accompanied by his pig. The embroidery has been mounted on unbleached canvas. It is set in an antique frame with a key-lock mechanism. Hanging is made easy by an antique brass hook fitted with a ring. The glass is antique, as evidenced by its surface irregularities and small bubbles. The embroidery dates from the 18th century and has come down to us in perfect condition, retaining a wonderful sense of freshness.
