Wrestling Costume
The image shows two long, narrow pieces of fabric side by side. The fabric on the left is gray with a white border on either side. The bottom third of the fabric has a design. The design includes Chinese characters in black and white. There are also images of what appear to be a dragon or other mythical creature and a fish. The bottom of the fabric has a thick decorative trim. The fabric on the right is also gray, but the bottom third has a different design. This design features a flower-like pattern with curved lines and floral motifs in shades of gray. There is a circular emblem in the center. The background of the image is black, with a thin white border around the edges. The image appears to be a "Wrestling Costume" by an unidentified artist.
