Roundel Fragment with Cross Among Plants

Tapestry woven fragment with a bright red background. A curving buff line suggests the shape of the original roundel on this textile. At the center of the roundel is a buff circle with a light blue cross. Within each of the cross’ four interstices are pink and green circles that may suggest fruits or flower buds. The arrangement of the spindly buff colored plant forms in the roundel is symmetrical. These plant forms have green, gold, light blue, and dark reddish-purple foliage. Outside the roundel another plant with spade shaped leaves with gold and blue details.
