About this artwork
This fragment's overall lozenge grid has alternate rows of two opposed pairs of confronted camels on a densely foliated ground flanking a central ornamented diamond that encloses four-directional palmettes in deep golden tan on a dark blue-green ground, and symmetrical pairs of opposed floral vines in dark blue-green on a deep golden tan ground.
