The Holy Family Italian Tapestry Italian Tapestry

The Holy Family Italian Tapestry is a jacquard woven wall tapestry. The Church of the Holy Family is a large Roman Catholic church in Barcelona, Spain, designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926). Although incomplete, the church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and in November 2010 Pope Benedict XVI consecrated and proclaimed it a minor basilica as distinct from a cathedral which must be the seat of a bishop.
