Circle Drapery

Circle Drapery

Two fragments preserving on (a) a solid brownish-orange with traces of black; a solid dark red below shows even fainter traces; between them is a slightly curving band made up of a central zone of light greenish-blue with two internal black lines and a band of white to either side, on which are tangential black circles. The upper row of circles becomes smaller towards the right and is overlapped by the upper orange before it reaches the edge. On (b) a solid black area at the left makes a vertical straight edge against which the various colored zones at right abut: pink below with vertical black lines; a white band with black tangential circles; a light greenish-blue with two internal black lines; another white band with black tangential circles. Other pieces show pink zones with horizontal black lines like the greenish-blue bands here; also both pink and greenish-blue zones with diagonal black lines; also occasionally tan zones between circled bands.
