This print showcases a remarkable "Fragment (foot) of a bowl" believed to date back to the 12th century. Created by an unknown artist, this ceramic piece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Middle East and Islamic culture. The intricate design and vibrant colors displayed on this fragment exemplify the mastery of stone paste painted under glaze technique. Displayed in the prestigious Arthur M Sackler Gallery, part of the Smithsonian Institution, this artifact represents centuries-old craftsmanship that continues to captivate art enthusiasts and scholars alike. Its origin in Raqqa, Syria adds another layer of historical significance, as it reflects the region's cultural influence during that time. The Freer Gallery of Art serves as an educational institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing such invaluable pieces from various civilizations. This photograph not only captures its beauty but also invites viewers into a journey through time, exploring ancient religious traditions and scientific advancements. As we marvel at this mysterious vessel fragment, we are reminded once again how art transcends boundaries - both geographical and temporal.
