Fragment of a Tiraz

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric with a horizontal band of red embroidered Arabic script in the center. The fabric is off-white, with a rough, frayed edge on all sides, and appears to be made of linen or cotton. The fabric has various stains and discolorations throughout, giving it a worn and aged appearance. The red embroidery is intricate and runs horizontally across the center of the fabric. The background of the image is a light gray color, providing a neutral contrast to the fabric. The title of the piece is "Fragment of a Tiraz".
