A 19th Century folk art woolwork memorial panel worked with a graveyard scene depicting a sailor stood leaning against a pillar with weeping willow tree and urn on top, 'To the memory of a mother drowned May 2 1864' with a kneeling figure weeping into a handkerchief and a flying angel above holding out a laurel wreath, all framed with two stylised trees to the sides with smaller scattered trees and headstones, the figure heads in printed paper, framed 51.5cm x 69cm.
Colours appear to be strong and there is little suggestion of any fading or discolouration. There are fox spots and some dot staining. The edge is not particularly well finished and you can see this as it has slipped slightly in the frame. The frame itself is a little chipped and worn.
