Taffeta Fragment

Cleveland Museum of Art

Taffeta Fragment, a light-colored fabric with a subtle sheen and visible texture. The fabric is rectangular in shape. Vertical stripes of varying widths run across the fabric's surface. The stripes are primarily a light pinkish-beige color. Floral motifs are scattered across the fabric. The floral patterns feature small blooms in shades of pink, blue, and yellow. The flowers appear to be arranged in a repeating design. The fabric's edges are rough and uneven. The background behind the fabric is a solid light gray color.
