The brilliantly colored, painterly depiction of a blue bird and a basket of grapes is typical of the figural naturalism of the late Greco-Roman period. Originally part of a series of decorated bands composing a wall hanging or curtain, this piece probably was used in a domestic setting. Thought to have been woven at Herakleia in Anatolia, it is evidence of the importation of exceptional fabrics into Egypt.Free picture Hanging Fragment with Bird and Basket integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
