From the museum record

A striped silk textile, probably made for use in the Islamic Alhambra palatine complex, was turned into a mantle for a statue of the Virgin Mary. On the crimson stripes the salutation that occurs as ornamental text throughout the Alhambra, Glory to our Lord the Sultan , repeats in Arabic script.

Lupin’s visual index

A richly patterned velvet cape displays intricate red and blue stripes with gold accents and a yellow collar.
