Fragment of a Border

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a vertical, rectangular piece of fabric with frayed edges and a beige background. The fabric features two figures with predominantly black bodies and red, white, and brown faces. The faces have teeth and are surrounded by brown hair or headpieces. The figures wear ornate outfits with various patterns, including checkered and solid-colored designs in shades of brown, red, and gold. The top figure's arms are raised, while the bottom figure's arms are bent at the elbows, with hands near their waist. The bottom figure has a long, thin object extending from its waist. The fabric appears to be a textile artwork, titled "Fragment of a Border", by an unknown artist. The figures are positioned on a beige background, with the fabric's frayed edges visible around the figures.
