Carpet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a carpet titled "Carpet" by an unknown artist. The carpet fills the frame. It is rectangular and viewed flat with the bottom edge parallel to the bottom of the frame. The carpet's surface features vertical bands of varying widths. The bands are made up of textured, woven patterns. The patterns alternate between light and dark gray, with shades of gray in between. The patterns resemble abstract shapes. The left and right sides of the carpet have a border. The bottom left corner of the carpet shows a circular object. The background of the image is white. There are numbers printed along the bottom edge.
