Subject:Can find nothing that looks like this.

I apologize for the terrible image but can anyone help me with any guesses about this piece of art? Period? Region? Tourist item? Thanks.

This image seems to be Mongolian.
Best regards,
Rémy

Thanks. It looks like a Mongolian warrior to me too. But the hat/helmet isn't quite right to me.

This appears to be a rubbing, possibly off something like a tomb wall or other stone bas-relief. Usually these are only black ink, but in this case the person making the rubbing has used different inks or paints to enhance the image.

I hadn't thought of that. Thanks.
