This anonymous “Head Covering” from 1920 is a large and vibrantly colored, tie-dyed silk fabric, adorned with gold trim. The fabric is likely meant to be worn as a head covering or shawl and its center features a unique design with a cream background and black and red concentric circles. It is currently located at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
