Textile Fragment

Not on view

This textile fragment of irregular shape consists of a linen foundation decorated with silk. A repeating design of very small red quatrefoil forms in horizontal rows appears against the plain beige background. The effect creates a harmonious pattern that could have been repeated over a large piece of textile.
