Accession No. 22639
Tiraz
Fatimid, period of al-Zahir or al-Mustansir, 11th century.
The rather dense arrangement of decoration in several registers seen here is typical of later Fatimid textiles. The inscription seen here is moreless a repeat of the letters “lam” and “alif” and is not legible. This, too, is typical of tiraz textiles of that period.
