Morocco: Detail of a carved and painted architectural frieze, 14th century. The panel’s pattern achieves a fine balance between serving as a geometric border and comprising a vegetal ornament with recognizable elements such as pinecones and leaves. The wooden panel perhaps embellished a lintel in a well-to-do private house.
