Brocade by artist, fragment of gold brocade with a pinkish background and green and red designs, against a black background. The fabric is triangular with one long side and two short sides that meet at a point. The background of the fabric is gold with a pinkish hue and a subtle texture. There are green curved lines that run along the length of the fabric with red and gold designs within them. The green lines have a rope-like pattern. The fabric has a frayed edge around the perimeter. The background behind the fabric is solid black.
