This fine and intricate cloth applique portrait of Abraham depicts essential traits of his appearance and character. Information about Abraham’s life is found in the Bible: “Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel . . . I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it forever” (Exodus 32:13).
