Shawl- (Llklla) 1960 - 1970

This "Shawl" (Llklla) is an example of traditional Andean textile art. The shawl is made from black wool and features a central band of intricate embroidery. The band is highlighted by a series of red and yellow lines and adorned with geometric and floral motifs. The shawl is a testament to the artistry and skill of Andean weavers, and it continues to be an important part of traditional dress and culture in the region. It is currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. The art of Andean textiles is known for its bold colors and symbolic patterns.
