EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning communion table-cover, exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1851, is a magnificent example of the intricate damask craftwork produced by Pegler of Leeds. The table-cover, which measures approximately 112 cm x 152 cm, is adorned with a rich and detailed design that represents the Last Supper and other significant Christian emblems. The Last Supper scene is depicted in the center of the table-cover, with Jesus and his twelve apostles seated around the table. The intricate damask pattern weaves together the figures, the table, and various symbols of the Christian faith, such as the chalice, the host, and the cross. The design is executed with exceptional skill and precision, showcasing the mastery of the Pegler craftsmen. The communion table-cover was a significant exhibit at the Great Exhibition, which was held in London and showcased the best in industrial and decorative arts from around the world.

This historical table-cover is not only a beautiful and decorative piece but also a significant religious artifact. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions of the Christian faith and the importance of communion in the lives of believers. The table-cover is a testament to the skill and creativity of the Pegler craftsmen and a valuable addition to any collection of historical textiles or religious art.
