Shawl ("Cadar")

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Shawl ("Cadar") by an unknown artist depicts a square piece of fabric with a maroon-red color. The fabric features a border on all four sides adorned with a repeating pattern of four-beige-and-one-black circles resembling flowers or dots arranged in a pattern on a maroon-red background. Inside the border, there are beige, black, and white geometric patterns forming interconnected rectangular shapes across the fabric's surface, including a larger rectangle in the center. The fabric appears to be crumpled, indicating it may be made of a soft material such as silk or cotton. The background behind the fabric is gray.
