Textile with field of poppies on a golden ground

Cleveland Museum of Art

The textile depicts a field of poppies on a golden ground and was made by artist Anni Albers. The image shows a square textile with a repeating pattern of orange poppies on a tan background. The poppies are arranged in rows and columns, with each flower having a long green stem and two green leaves at the base. The petals of the flowers are a vibrant orange color. The background of the textile is a light tan color with visible vertical and horizontal creases, giving it a worn and aged appearance. The edges of the textile are rough and frayed. The image has a plain gray background.
