Velvet Fragment

Cleveland Museum of Art

Velvet Fragment by artist unknown. The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric with a raised, ornate pattern. The fabric is primarily a faded greenish-gray color with some tan areas. There are two long borders on the left and right sides, with the left border being thicker. The main body of the fabric features a repeating pattern of curved lines and shapes, possibly resembling foliage. The fabric appears worn and frayed at the edges. The background behind the fabric is a solid light gray color.
