Embroidered Bedspread

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a gold embroidered bedspread. The rectangular bedspread fills the frame. The bedspread's background color is light beige or off-white. The entire bedspread, including its border, is densely embroidered with gold thread in intricate floral patterns. The outer border of the bedspread consists of repeating floral motifs. Inside the outer border, there are four corner sections with floral motifs that match the outer border. Inside those corner sections, there are three horizontal rows of identical floral motifs. The central area of the bedspread consists of a large rectangle with a floral pattern that matches the border and corner sections. The bedspread appears to be made of a thin, possibly silk or cotton, fabric. The background behind the bedspread is gray.
