Tunic with Profile Animal and Human Heads

Cleveland Museum of Art

The textile features a rectangular shape with a central section divided into a grid-like pattern. The top portion of the grid consists of 40 triangular sections, arranged in eight rows of five. These triangles are various shades of pink, red, brown, and tan, and contain various shapes and designs. Three vertical maroon-colored panels are positioned below the grid. The background of the textile is a cream color. The bottom edge appears to be uneven. The title of the textile is "Tunic with Profile Animal and Human Heads," however, no profile animal or human heads are visually present.
