Fragment of a Tiraz-Style Textile

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Fragment of a Tiraz-Style Textile by Unknown artist depicts a rectangular piece of fabric with frayed edges. The fabric has a beige background and two decorative borders. The top border is narrower than the bottom one and features a pattern of geometric shapes in shades of red, blue, and brown. The bottom border is wider and showcases a more intricate design with floral motifs in shades of red, green, and beige. The fabric appears to be made of a coarse material, possibly linen or cotton, and has a worn, aged look. The overall color palette is muted, with earthy tones dominating the piece. The image presents a simple yet detailed view of the textile fragment.
