A Tapestry in Bergamo

I am always amazed at the incredible craftsmanship of the Italian Renaissance.  Here is a tapestry hanging in Santa Maria Maggiore in Bergamo.  Imagine the work that went into this.  It’s about 8 feet tall and 20 feet long.  The detail is stunning.  Yes, of course, it’s an Italian version of the crucifixion (you can see that in the background of castles and mountains) and it’s 15th century (clothing, horses, etc.) but even if it’s not historically accurate, it is still a spectacular work of art.  I only wish you could see it in person.
