Tapestry-woven Yoke from a Tunic, 800-1200?. Creator: Unknown
Tapestry-woven Yoke from a Tunic, 800-1200?. This fragment comes from the neck area of a tunic; the shoulder fold would have divided the diamond in half horizontally and thick embroidery defines remnants of the neck opening. In the rectangular area on the chest are two similar, long-tailed creatures rendered in a highly geometric style. Each is rotated 90 degrees so its tail is parallel to the bottom edge; the two-toed paws at the top may identify the creatures as deer or Andean camelids, such as llamas or alpacas

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Tapestry-woven Yoke from a Tunic, believed to date back to the period between 800 and 1200. The creator of this exquisite piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its already impressive presence. The fragment displayed in the photograph originates from the neck area of a tunic, where the shoulder fold would have divided the diamond pattern horizontally. Remnants of the neck opening are defined by thick embroidery, showcasing skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail. Intriguingly, on the rectangular chest area of this tapestry yoke, we find two striking creatures depicted in a highly geometric style. These long-tailed beings are rotated at a 90-degree angle so that their tails align parallel to the bottom edge. Atop each creature's head are distinctive two-toed paws which suggest they may be deer or Andean camelids such as llamas or alpacas. Crafted using camelid fiber and cotton through tapestry weaving techniques, this textile masterpiece hails from Central Andes with influences from Moche Wari style found along North Central Coast. Preserved within The Cleveland Museum of Art's collection, it stands as an exceptional example of heritage artistry. Heritage Images has beautifully captured this extraordinary artifact in their print series - offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate its intricate design and cultural significance without commercial intentions but rather for educational purposes only.
