Textile

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a gold-colored textile with a repeating pattern of various elements. The textile is square and has a slightly rough edge. The background of the textile is a gold color with a subtle pattern of small circles. On top of the background are several larger designs: - A repeating pattern of trees with fan-shaped leaves in white, blue, and brown. The trees have curved branches. - Three human figures in a light beige color are spaced across the bottom half. The figures are standing and have their hands clasped in front. They are wearing long robes. The textile has a few areas of damage, including a hole in the bottom-left corner and some fraying around the edges. The textile by the artist is titled "Textile".
