Originally described on acquisition as Italian velvet, Cologne work orphreys. In Dr Bock's Revise of 1888 recorded as '? English. 15th centy.' Recent research suggests the embroidery is from the Rhineland, though the silk velvet is probably Italian or Spanish, as these were the main centres of silk weaving at the time, and that it dates to the third quarter of the fifteenth century. (See Johnstone and Museum Schnutgen in bibliography). The date of 1375 is proposed by Evelin Wetter on the basis of a comparison of the style of figures with a painted altarpiece in Brandenburg.
