Circular clave on thin linen fabric; with woven ornamentation in black-brown and red on white. A vine with tendrils is depicted growing out of a double-handled vase in an antique style. The wider branches of the vine form a heart shape and enclose two hovering angels; birds sit in the branches. Two deer feeding on the branches are placed next to the vase. The Coptic textiles preserved in the Ulm Museum were purchased from the collection of Franz Bock (1823 - 1899) by the former Gewerbemuseum Ulm at the end of the 1880s. Dr Franz Johann Joseph Bock was a clergyman and art historian and travelled to Upper Egypt in 1885 and 1886, where he carried out excavations. He amassed a collection of Coptic textile fragments from tombs. In particular, these were pieces of blankets or tunics. Franz Bock gradually sold the collected objects to various museums. As Bock trimmed his finds, only sections of larger fabrics were usually included in the various collections. It is therefore likely that fragments of one and the same textile are scattered across several collections.
