A FRAGMENT OF A MARINID TERRACOTTA TILE Morocco, 14th – 15th century Of rectangular format, made in two parts, painted in black over a white slip ground now faded, covered in transparent glaze, the decoration consisting of a calligraphic band against a scrolling ground of vegetal tendrils, mounted on a black stand, 16cm x 10cm excluding the stand. The style and decorative vocabulary of this tile show strong similarities with the calligraphic tile panels at the Al-Attarine Madrasa, built by the Marinid sultan Abu Sa’id Uthman II between 1323 and 1325, suggesting an analogous country of origin and date.
