Antique Victorian Needlepoint Tapestry In Frame, c.1850s, King Pardons Gallileo, Figural mint julep and equal those in theA wonderful scene, though I'm guessing at that being Gallileo kneeling. Perhaps if you recognize the scene you will email us and we'll review. It's a wonderful mid 1800s fine stitch needlepoint in silk and wool yarns, very nicely preserved in what would appear to be the original frame. A gold filet performs as a perfect mat to encase the tapestry. Purchased in France, we are uncertain who stitched it. Very good to excellent and no glass present so
