Two fragments of framed textiles, Fatimid Egypt, probably 12 - Lot 165
Two fragments of framed textiles, Fatimid Egypt, probably 12th century Linen weavings, one with a frieze of black roundels with a red heart, the other with a frieze of rinceaux trimmed with flowering palmettes seeming to include an inscription, with a bird on the right. Framed under glass. Length: 16.5 and 15.5 cm Stains and accidents, minor repairs to one. A tiraz from the al-Sabah collection in Kuwait (LNS 47T) is very similar to our second textile, with the bird replaced by hares and the calligraphy clearly legible.
