A GIFT OF GLORY (3)

Another shot. The tapestries in this picture are on the backside of the façade facing the main altar of the cathedral and just below the choir and organ balcony. The middle tapestry shows the grandmaster - Ramon Perellos y Roccafull - on his Seat of Office. The tapestries were ordered from the weaver Judocus de Vos in 1698, in Brussels journeying through France and arriving in Malta in 1702.
Many thanks for all your views, comments and fav's on yesterday's picture.
