Green velvet chasuble

The decorative solution of the fabric, marked by a horizontally developed compositional rhythm, is played on the repetition, with opposite orientation, of an elegant palmette, standing on a pair of leaflets, permeated with references to ornamental motifs of oriental tradition. The quality of the velvet, the refined choice of color, the skill of the draughtsman, and the references to oriental decorative patterns make this artifact attributed to Venice.
