This "Woman's Wrapper" is a woven textile created by the Dogon people, known for their intricate and symbolic art. The piece showcases a striking geometric pattern of black and white stripes, creating a visually appealing rhythm. The subtle decorative bands of geometric motifs further enhance the visual interest of the work. This textile, a testament to the Dogon's mastery of weaving, would have served as a practical garment while also holding cultural significance.
