Title
Arc Dado
Subject
Joining fragments preserving a plain blue band with black line. Above the band are red uprights, one at corner and others at intervals over whole length. The areas between the red uprights are detailed: starting in the lower left and upper right corners with vertically elongated quarter-rounds of one color, the designer continued with arcs of different colors till the largest arcs met near the middle of each panel. The colors of the arcs are blue, red, pink and white. The arcs are outlined at their borders with black lines, usually three or four in number; the lines may be plain, rippled or scalloped.
