On a red velvet we find embroidery in gold thread with a central motif of a monstrance, surrounded by vines and ears of wheat. These motifs correspond particularly well to this veil which covers the tabernacle welcoming the consecrated hosts.
The veil usually followed the liturgical season, which was Pentecost for red. But regarding the color of Christ and taking into account the embroidery subjects associated with him, it is undoubtedly a conopeia which falls outside liturgical time.
A 19th century work, probably from the Chatel et Tassinari house in Lyon, founded in 1680 in Lyon
Dimensions of 63 cm by 82 cm wide.
A fairly rare liturgical object, as it has almost fallen into disuse. The veil indeed masked the aesthetics of the tabernacle.
However, here we touch the very essence of the biblical tabernacle which was, before the construction of the Temple, a mobile tent.
It is, in a way, a tabernacle in its ancient sense which covers... the tabernacle of a consecrated place.
As in the Old Testament, the tabernacle is the House of God, inviolable. no one enters it.
