Hi all.
A private owner has asked me to join an investigation of an
embroidered prayer cloth that apparently has been dated by
radiocarbon analysis at the University of Arizona to 620-1050 AD. I
have not seen the actual piece, only a photograph.
Before agreeing to join the project as a conservation scientist, I'd
like to speak with an expert or experts (e.g., conservators, art
historians) who can advise on stylistic analysis and materials likely
to be found in a textile of this style and age.
Can anyone offer any recommendations?
With thanks,
Jamie
