<td width="100%">
We offer a large silk embroidery of Mary Queen of Scots being helped into a small boat.
This scene probably represents the Queen in the process of fleeing probably after the Battle of Langside.
Beautifully done on a silk panel there is also some wool work as well.
This is typical of late 17th century work. It is an impressive large piece.

Condition: there is some piecing of the silk due to degeneration, and the purchaser should have the piece stabilized by a fabric conservator. Otherwise it is extremely impressive and demonstrates high quality work.

Measurements of the silk panel, not including the frame: 73 cm by 54 cm.
The item is glazed but open to the rear.
Shipping outside of the Nortth America will be done by Xpress Post. To the UK this will be some $125.00.
