✨DETAILS✨ : This detail comes from an embroidery acquired by Jim Ede in 1973, given to him by his friend Jan Ellison. Ede's inventories describe these as 'Kurdish trousers', but actually they are examples of 'zartoshti duzi' - needlework made by Zoroastrian women in Iran during the 19th and early 20th centuries. -- Find out more about the works of art in our #ArtistUnknownUCM exhibition at a panel discussion on 19 September. Speakers will include Vicky Avery (Fitzwilliam Museum), Eliza Spindel (Kettle's Yard), Alex Partridge (The Polar Museum) and Nicholas Thomas (Museum of Archeology and Anthropology) @fitzmuseum_uk @maacambridge @scott.polar -- Book your tickets here: http://ow.ly/Iaoa50w429i
