Fragment of a Border
This fragment was originally part of the border of a stained-glass window, most likely from the clerestory of a church. It is composed of two different motifs-a palmette and a circle enclosing a rosette, a not uncommon combination in the 12th century, but increasingly rare in the 13th. The variety of color in this border, its lush vegetal forms, and the detail of painting relate it to stained-glass ornament produced around the end of the 12th century.
