Fragment of a tapestry divided into two decorative sections horizontally arranged, both with identical drawing although with inverted color weave: the upper one with red background over a geometrical abstraction in beige whose center is a blue rhombus. The lower one, with blue background, over another ocher-colored geometrical abstraction and red rhombi in the center. Both are framed by a double border made by a succession of white and red triangles in the lower part and ocher-colored and blue triangles in the upper one, all of them dotted inside by the opposite color with which they are combined. Over this border, there is another band, mainly preserved on the right side, inserted with rhombi and striped ovals with red and blue alternately. To the left side there was a coat-of-arms embroidered, which of only half is preserved, surrounded by an orle of two green branches intertwined in a “8” form, where in its internal margin we can read the inscription “ Maria Gratia Plena”, and were we can see a fortified city.
