Both panels applied with twisted braid to four edges and not lined.Each panel taken from a famous Renaissance series of twelve woven tapestries, The Hunts of Maximilian, which were designed by Bernaert Van Orley (ca.1528-1531), originally woven in Brussels, in the Dermoyen workshop (1531-1533), originally woven in wool, silk and metal-thread. Each panel was placed under a sign of the zodiac and in turn associated with a month of the year. They were devoted to hunting, set in the Soignes forest (Imperial hunting ground near Brussels), and many of the emblems used in the original series referred to members of the imperial entourage around Charles V.
