Curtain

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork titled "Curtain" by artist Pablo Picasso features a piece of white fabric hanging vertically. The fabric has a repeating pattern of various black floral designs scattered across its surface. The designs include several types of flowers and foliage. Some of the flowers are adorned with bows. The fabric appears to be hanging against a gray background. A crease runs down the center of the fabric. There are signs of wear and tear at the bottom right corner. The overall composition is simple yet detailed in its pattern.
