Légende
Fragment with peacocks in ogival pattern, 1175-1225. Neither the design nor the technique of this silk provide clues to whether it was woven in Iran or Syria. As Iran and Iraq fell to the Mongol armies during the second quarter of the 13th century, many artisans fled to Syria, taking with them the techniques and patterns with which they were familiar. The inscriptions are pseudo and are therefore purely decorative.
