Fragment with Scenes in Roundels

Description

This textile is a combination of two fragments. The leftmost fragment contains the left half of a roundel with the same pattern as the almost complete roundel to the right, in which two figures face one another. Above the roundels are abstract green trees. The rightmost textile fragment also contains a larger yellow figure reaching toward what is possibly a blue and pink bird. Roundels have jeweled borders.
