A Coptic tapestry fragment from Egypt, woven in wool and linen. Its figured design and border preserve late antique textile practice in compact form.
Even as a fragment, the work carries the density of a finished textile system: figured center, patterned border, and skilled control of color and weave. The uncertain subject should remain explicitly uncertain.
The fragment relates directly to textile heritage through tapestry weaving, figured ornament, and the survival of Coptic weaving traditions in museum collections.
