Panel For A Cabinet Door

Rectangular textile with ornate embroidery of an oak tree in an oval with an elaborate foliage designs surrounding. The tree is rendered with dimensional leaves in shades of green, the trunk and branches are also dimensional, and worked in silver metallic thread, now tarnished. At the base of the tree is a salamander, also in silver metallic thread. The background depicts a landscape in pale silks with mountains and buildings, possibly a monastery. The oval landscape is surrounded by framework that is embroidered with plant forms; in the two upper corners are coiled serpents, and in the two lower corners serpents emerge from cornucopias. The framework is accented accented throughout with coral beads and edged with a scalloped lace, probably added later.
