According to the V&A catalogue, the frontal was likely designed by the famous Venezian painter, Paolo Veneziano, or by his workshop, with a clear Byzantine influence. It was made for the cathedral of Veglia (modern Krk) in Croatia. The frontal shows Christ crowning Mary, being surrounded by angels and saints, including Saint Querinus of Sescia, the patron saint of Veglia. The design was drawn onto the cloth, and then embroidered. Some of the drawing can now be seen at places where the embroidery has worn away.
