Rubbing of Han Dynasty Tile
The image shows a black and white rubbing of two rectangular designs on a tile. The left rectangle is smaller than the right one and features a symmetrical design with a central motif resembling a crown or a decorative element, surrounded by patterns. The right rectangle depicts a long, curved creature that resembles a dragon or a serpent with scales, moving to the left. The creature has a head at one end and a tail at the other, with its body undulating. Both rectangles have a raised border around them. The rubbing appears to be on a piece of white paper. The title of the image is "Rubbing of Han Dynasty Tile" by an unknown artist.
