Size: 20.75 W x 10.25 H (52.7 cm x 26 cm) The Coptics were the Christian descendants of the ancient Egyptians. The emergence of Coptic art coincided with the decline of the Roman Empire and corresponded with the reemergence of native art in Egypt. Using intricate patterns and vivid colors, Coptic weavers created masterpieces of textile art. Coptic textiles, used for rugs, wall hangings, and clothing appliques, were exported throughout the Roman and Byzantine empires. Coptic tunics and shawls were standard garments during this time. Coptic textiles are some of the only examples of ancient textiles to have survived since they come from the dry Egyptian desert climate.
