Description

 This is a Large (26"x11' )Egyptian silk tapestry that was found inside a trunk that once pelonged to Paramount pictures.  It looks to be hand sewn as the stitching doesn't appear uniform. The material on the front and the back are silk with what appears  to be a burlap lining. it's in pretty good shape but it's deffinately showing signs of wear.

I was told that it was one of the tapestries used in the movie "The Ten Commandments"But I cannot confirm that.
