Title A name given to the resource Roundel Subject The topic of the resource Roundel: Personification with Candelabra Plants, Byzantine, Egypt, 7th-8th century, 20.23 cm, wool and linen, Cambridge, MA, Harvard Art Museums. Description An account of the resource Museum Description: “Tapestry woven roundel (orbiculus). The small medallion at its center contains a female figure, likely a beneficent personification, with a green nimbus against a bright red background. Her breasts are distinguished in yellow against her dark blue torso. She wears a skirt with many folds and may be seated. The woman raises one arm and possibly holds up a leaf in a gesture common to depictions of personifications of the earth. Thin white supplementary threads above the woman’s right hand may be an unreadable interpretation of the inscriptions that often identify personifications. Eight thick, gold plant forms outlined in black surround the central medallion in a symmetrical arrangement; these plants are of the jeweled candelabra type often featured in textile medallions in the later part of Late Antiquity. Four of the vine-like plants contain birds, and the other four have leaves/flowers of various colors. Small birds and red dots fill the empty space within the main field. The borders of the central medallion and the larger design field are formed by interlocking color segments outlined in black. The outermost border is formed of red and yellow tendrils and blue dots. Undyed warps run parallel to the orientation of the figural design.” Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://hvrd.art/o/213655 Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Harvard Art Museums 1931.46 IIIF Item Metadata UUID 3892135b-e6f1-468c-9585-d59a78c72579
