This embossed, gilt linen sculptural tunic was meticulously folded by hand into square scales and finished with patinated details. It required a lot of determination as Pietro Seminelli was faced by the roughness of this thick, embossed material. The sculpture is finished with black epaulettes, black horsehair trimmings, bearings in black lacquered ash and brass pegs.
