I hate black and white photos sometimes.

I'm dying to know what color this Nara period textile fragment in the Met collection is. And the description is not exactly helpful. It looks printed though. I may have to steal that design though. I could totally do something with it.

Here's an equally frustrating one from the Kyoto Costume Museum. It came up in a search for Nara textiles, but there's no description!

Same with this one, although it's at least in color. http://syuweb.kyohaku.go.jp/ibmuseum_public/index.php?app=shiryo&mode=detail&list_id=199656&data_id=19685
