The neckline of the linen tunic features an inlaid red square insert and a red border. Both have patterns with simple stylised flowers. The square insert is edged with a wavy pattern and is decorated in the centre with a tree motif in a circle.
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 from one and the same textile are scattered across several collections.
