Created by the talented artist Bernard van Orley and manufactured in Brussels around 1525, this masterpiece is made of silk and wool fabric. Its impressive size of 560 x 410 cm commands attention and draws viewers into its intricate details. Currently located in the Cathedral of Burgos in Spain, this remarkable piece was originally bequeathed to the cathedral in 1535 by Cardinal Inigo Lopez de Mendoza.

The vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship bring this biblical tale to life, making it an invaluable treasure for art enthusiasts and religious scholars alike. With its rich historical significance and artistic brilliance, this Flemish tapestry exemplifies the mastery of the Flemish School during the Renaissance period. It serves as a testament to their contribution to European art history.
