Section of a Coping Rail

Cleveland Museum of Art

Section of a coping rail by unknown artist. The image shows a long, rectangular stone carving. The carving depicts a boat with a pointed end on the right and an open end on the left. Inside the boat are three people and several objects; one person sits at the back of the boat near the pointed end; another person sits on the right side; and a third person is standing on the left side near the open end. The boat has a curved body with decorative elements along its side. The base of the stone carving features a repeating pattern of geometric shapes and hanging bells. The background behind the stone carving fades from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
