Textile with Paired Ducks in Roundels (Copy of a Medieval Silk)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular textile with a repeating pattern. The background of the textile is light brown. The main design features four identical circular motifs arranged in two rows of two. Each circle contains a pair of ducks facing each other, with their heads turned back. The ducks are depicted in shades of brown. The circles have a green border. There are also four smaller, eight-pointed star motifs between the circles. The stars have a green and brown design on a light brown background. The textile has a frayed edge around its perimeter and appears to be made of a woven material, possibly silk.
