Embroidered Skirt Panel

Cleveland Museum of Art

The embroidered skirt panel by an unknown artist features a cream-colored fabric with a central stem and branches adorned with leaves, flowers, and seed pods. The embroidery is intricate, with various shapes and colors, including brown, orange, green, and blue. The leaves are predominantly brown with green centers, while the flowers and seed pods display a mix of colors. The fabric appears wrinkled, suggesting it may be a historical or vintage piece. The overall design is symmetrical, with the central stem and branches extending downwards, flanked by leaves and flowers on either side. The embroidery is densely packed, covering most of the fabric.
