Embroidered Medallion

This medallion showing the Evangelist symbol for Matthew (an angel), and its pair depicting John, originally formed a group with two other medallions showing the symbols for Mark and Luke. Their small scale suggests that they may have been attached to a stole (epitrachelion).
