Fragment of a Shawl

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows two rectangular pieces of fabric with a yellow background and a repeating pattern. The fabric pieces are long and rectangular. The top piece is positioned above the bottom piece. Both pieces have a yellow background with a repeating pattern of teardrop-shaped motifs. The motifs are filled with small, intricate designs in shades of red, blue, green, and white. Each teardrop shape is curved and points downwards. The teardrop shapes are arranged in rows, with each row containing approximately 13 motifs. The fabric appears to be frayed and worn, with some threads loose or missing. The background of the image is solid black.
