This was my find of the day from the Boston Edison sale. It was labeled Antique-Relic-Rough and is it ever! Im guessing 17th or 18th century and I found that they did hand paint tapestries aside from needle point back then. It is split in half with some worn spots here and there, but so incredible. Im so excited! I have noting to rival it in age. It is hand painted on a heavy linen. I would love more info on this one but its tough finding much out there. If you happen to know anything about this piece please comment.
