This fragment of a textile, dating from the 10th to 12th centuries, features a repeating pattern of stylized floral motifs in red, blue, and black on a tan background. Created by an anonymous artist, it is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship of textile production during this period. The fragment, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a valuable relic offering insights into the artistic and cultural traditions of the time.
