This artwork is a reproduction of a silk textile from the 12th century, created in 1857-1864 by an anonymous artist. The textile, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a symmetrical pattern of two golden lions on a blue background. The intricate design, typical of 12th-century silk weaving, showcases the skill and artistry of medieval textile workers, illustrating a popular motif of the era. While the original textile is lost to time, this reproduction provides a glimpse into the craftsmanship and aesthetic of this period.
