Where did this go?
This piece was made in Iraq, and presumably stayed in the surrounding area for the duration of its creation period. This piece was first put into a museum in 1981, where it was observed at the Berlin Museum für Islamische Kunst, Pergamonmuseum, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin. While there it was presented at "The Arts of Islam. Masterpieces from the M.M.A.,". It then moved to New York, at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It was shown in the exhibition titled, "The Glory of Byzantium," where it stayed from March 11–July 6, 1997. In 2012 it was moved to Medford, MA, at the Tufts University Art Gallery. It was then moved back to New York at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art for the "Court and Cosmos: The Great Age of the Seljuqs," exhibition from April 25, 2016–July 24, 2016. Since then, it was moved to the Institut du Monde Arabe, at the "Chrêtiens d'Orient, 2000 ans d'histoire," exhibition from September 26, 2017–January 14, 2018.
