Fadrique Enríquez
Carpet probably made for Fadrique Enríquez, whose coat of arms — an upright lion beneath two triple-towered castles bordered by anchors and ropes — is repeated three times in the center field. A decorative pattern in the main border at each end, formed by designs that resemble Arabic script, indicates its Mudéjar workmanship. Philadelphia Museum of Art
