Woven Strip for Ecclesiastical Parameters

Cleveland Museum of Art

Woven Strip for Ecclesiastical Parameters by Lenore Tawney. The rectangular woven strip features a predominantly red, green, and white color scheme. The top section showcases a pattern of white clouds on a red and green background. A central vertical line divides the strip into two symmetrical sections. Each section depicts a kneeling figure with their hands clasped in prayer. The figures are rendered in white with minimal facial features. They wear green robes and are positioned in front of a red brick wall. The bottom of the strip features a decorative border with a repeating pattern. The woven strip has a frayed edge around its perimeter. The background of the image is a light gray color.
