Fragment, Sleeve Ornament from a Tunic

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Fragment, Sleeve Ornament from a Tunic by unknown artist depicts a long, narrow piece of fabric with frayed edges. The fabric is light brown with a darker brown design. Two vertical columns of pattern run down the center, separated by a thin line. The columns are made up of a repeating pattern of teardrop shapes with curved tops and pointed bottoms. Each teardrop contains a different design. The teardrops are connected by a curved line that forms a series of small loops. The background of the fabric is a light brown color, and the overall design is symmetrical. The frayed edges of the fabric are visible around the perimeter.
