Textile Fragment

Cleveland Museum of Art

The textile fragment by artist Anni Albers features a repeating pattern on a rectangular piece of fabric. The fabric has a light-colored background with a subtle texture. The pattern consists of vertical stripes, with each stripe containing a red flower with green leaves and a gray vase or urn shape. The flowers and leaves are arranged in a repeating sequence, with the flowers appearing in a staggered formation. The edges of the fabric are rough and frayed. The overall design is symmetrical and features a mix of floral and geometric elements. The colors present are red, green, gray, and light beige.
