Abstract
The Viennese Schotten Abbey possesses a series of rare Baroque and Rococo embroidered depictions of Old Testament scenes. These are found on liturgical vestments, a throne, and eight stools. The embroiderers of these pieces are known and their sources for the scenes have been traced to early 18th century embroideries. -- AATA
