Carpet, so-called "Polonaise"

Cleveland Museum of Art

The carpet, titled "Carpet, so-called 'Polonaise'", is rectangular. It has a tan background with a repeating pattern of darker tan, blue, and light blue shapes. The pattern includes four large symmetrical shapes in a cross-like formation. The shapes are made up of curved lines and teardrop shapes. A border around the edge of the carpet features a repeating pattern of small shapes. The border has a similar color scheme to the rest of the carpet. The carpet appears old and worn, with some areas faded or damaged. The background behind the carpet is white.
