Two Fragments of Embroidery

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows two fragments of embroidery on a piece of tan fabric, likely linen. The fabric is rectangular with a rough, frayed edge around the perimeter. The embroidery features two flowers with green stems and leaves. The flower on the left has a large, multicolored center with blue, red, white, and brown. The petals are long and thin, outlined in white thread. The flower on the right has a white center with a red center and white petals. There are white, curvy lines embroidered on the bottom of the fabric. A white background is visible behind the fabric. The title of the piece is "Two Fragments of Embroidery".
