Printed Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white printed piece by artist William Morris. The design consists of repeating vertical stripes. Each stripe contains a leopard-like animal design in the center and a plant with flowers on either side. The background of the image is white with thin black lines separating the vertical sections. The colors used are black and white. The design runs horizontally across the entire image. Two small lines of text in the bottom corners are barely legible.
