Sleeve Band

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a Sleeve Band by an unknown artist. The image shows a wrinkled dark-colored fabric with two long rectangular panels side by side. The panels have a border on either side and contain white designs on a darker background. The designs feature birds. The left panel shows a bird in the top half and another bird in the bottom half. The right panel shows a bird in the top half. A dark vertical band separates the two panels. The fabric appears to be made of silk or a similar material.
