Embroidered Band

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Embroidered Band by an unknown artist is a long and narrow piece of fabric. The fabric is yellow with a repeating design that includes trees with green leaves and colorful flowers and fruits. The trees are depicted in shades of brown with some pink flowers and fruits. Between the trees are white buildings with towers and domes. The design also includes blue and white curved shapes that resemble waves or scrolls. The bottom of the fabric features a border with a similar motif. The fabric appears to be made of silk or another smooth material. The background behind the fabric is light gray.
