Tapestry woven in wool and silk on a woollen warp about 18 threads to an inch. Depicting August harvesting with a man sitting on a heap of sheaves of corn in the foreground and drinking from a jug, a boy sleeps behind him, and on the left a woman is gathering sheaves and on the right a man is cutting corn with a scythe. In the middle distance a man is leading corn onto a cart. There is a village in the background on the left and a church on the right. The border contains a curling wine leaf in brown and green-yellow on a slate coloured ground. In the top border is woven a sign of the zodiac 'Virgo'. Woven into the right hand side is the Mortlake shield.
