Fragment with headless eagle

Cleveland Museum of Art

Fragment with headless eagle, fragment of woven fabric showing two bands at top and bottom with designs separated by a central panel with an eagle. The background shows a grid on a red background; the eagle has a green head and outstretched wings. The fabric has frayed edges. The dominant colors are red, gold, cream and green. The fabric fragment appears to come from a larger textile, likely a Parthian textile. The work is that of an unknown artist.
