Chimu Painted Textile Fragment

Likely Peru, pre-Columbian, woven fabric featuring figural and animal motifs in a grid of green and red diamond shapes rendered in paint on plainweave fabric, in double-sided frame.

27 x19 inches at widest, not including frame.

Fraying and holes to textile; staining; old stabilization patches to back; good vibrant color; frame is unstable and textile moves freely inside of it - should be replaced.
