Sleeve Band

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white drawing, divided vertically into two sections, titled "Sleeve Band" by an unknown artist. The drawing depicts a landscape scene repeated four times. The top two sections show a mountainous scene with a sun; one side has a mountain on the left and the other side on the right. The bottom two sections show a similar landscape with mountains and a tree. Each section shows wavy lines representing water. The drawing takes up most of the image, with a thin white border around it.
