Description
This fragment preserves a roundel containing a king on horseback. He has a falcon in his left hand and a leafy branch in his right. The roundel’s border is ornamented with a scrolling foliate vine. Interspaces contain partial oval medallions enclosing an eight-pointed star within which is a four-directional palmette. Joining the roundels at their cardinal points are x-shaped geometric figures.- ?-1982(Spink & Son, Ltd., London, UK, sold to the Cleveland Museum of Art)1982-The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
