Hand-woven Tablecloth

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Light gray tablecloth with a frayed bottom edge. The tablecloth fills the upper portion of the image. A few vertical creases run down the tablecloth. A thin white border surrounds the image on all sides except the bottom. A thin black border forms a band along the bottom and right edges. A small portion of the black border is visible on the left edge. The tablecloth fills most of the image with a solid light gray color. The bottom edge shows a row of short white threads.
