Frame, embroidered on the front with multicolored wool and printed on the back with a putto with a flower dish mounted on walnut pole. the front embroidered with multicolored wool in petit-point and gros-point. At the center of the asymmetrically constructed pattern are two birds that have been applied to each other on a branch, surrounded by floral and leaf motifs. The long tails and the baroque structure of the pattern are unusual and cannot be traced back to examples from pattern books for the time being. The walnut stick is placed on the screen from a nodus. The back of the screen is printed with a beige putto with gray wings, which holds a bowl of colored flowers above its head, Johan Teyler, c. 1688 - c. 1720, scherm, frame, stok, borduurwerk, gravure, printing, l 26 cm × w 20 cm l 38.5 cm
