A chasuble is the outer garment worn by a priest or bishop when celebrating the Mass, the core sacred ritual of the Roman Catholic faith. The embroidered bands down the front and back, called orphreys, depict events from the life of the Virgin Mary.
Clues to the origin and date of the chasuble emerge from both the medium and the design of the orphreys. While the gold thread and velvet suggest a Spanish origin, the designs themselves have been attributed to the famous Flemish artist Jan Gossaert. The designs may have been commissioned by a Spanish patron. Such an alliance is well imaginable, as during the 1520s both Spain and the Netherlands were ruled by the Hapsburg family; trade, both artistic or mercantile, flourished between the two territories.

What are called “the needle arts,” in particular embroidery and lace-making, were the domain of women throughout centuries of European and American history. As early as the 1500s, a young girl was trained in these arts by nuns, tutors, and her female relatives; her prowess was often a measure of both her breeding and suitability for marriage.
The making of lace, which developed from the art of embroidery, was intimately tied to fashion and social status. The addition of lace to collars, handkerchiefs, and other costumes established the wearer as a person of wealth. The industrial revolution transformed the lace-making industry; although elaborate handmade lace was still a mark of status, mass production also made it available to those of lesser means.
