          Two fragments of a 9th-/10th-century silk-embroidered garment from the burnt royal site at Llan-gors, Wales, which copies designs from Central Asian figured silks; one fragment has the charred pattern outlined in white & the other is digitally recoloured: https://museum.wales/articles/2007-05-03/The-Llan-gors-textile-an-early-medieval-masterpiece/ …pic.twitter.com/lOCKg0BqcU

          A 9th-century AD silk made in Central Asia showing pairs of horsemen hunting ibexes — interestingly, this Sogdian silk's design derives from Byzantine models & the piece was preserved in the Church of Saint-Omer, France: http://www.clevelandart.org/art/1974.98 pic.twitter.com/hDNRCDnFJj
