This tapestry bears an unidentified weaver’s mark centred by a crossed heart flanked by initials. The crossed heart appears also on a tapestry in the Spanish Royal Collection depicting The Story of Saint Anthony after Hieronimus Bosch, woven in the 1550s (P. Junquera de Vega and C. Herrero Carretero, Catalogo de Tapices del Patrimonio Nacional, Madrid, 1986, pp. 263-267, cat. 36).
