Priest's Robe (Shichijō)
Black fabric with repeating white pattern of skulls, rectangular shape. The title is "Priest's Robe (Shichijō)" and the artist is unknown. Black background fills the fabric. White skull-like pattern repeats across it. The white skulls are small, rounded, and similar in shape to a traditional Japanese Daruma doll. The fabric fills most of the image and has a thin white border around. The image shows the fabric flat and smooth with some creases. The fabric likely represents a priest's robe.
