Tile

The tile is complete; there are missing glaze chips on the corners of the face. It is square in shape. Its edge is slightly beveled. The back is covered with fine mortar, as is the rim. The body is beige, with glaze only on the front ; The decoration is hand-painted in blue. It is pastoral in style. Painted in the center of the tile, it consists of a shepherd seen in profile to the left and standing on a grassy terrace between rocks; another terrace in the background supports two rocks, from which a shrub and grasslands emerge. The four corners of the tile are adorned with the same geometric motif, consisting of four beads with solid cores arranged in a square, from which scrolls emerge.
