Suede shoulder bag

Suede. 16 x 20 cm (63 cm handles). Made in Italy.

Goya depicted his Hunter loading his Rifle (1755), one of the eight tapestry cartoons in the hunting-themed series painted to decorate the dining room of the princes of Asturias at the Escorial, dressed in the leather accessories of a hunting trip: bag, pouch, knapsack; similar in design to this austere suede shoulder bag with fringes, the ideal size for carrying only the essentials.
