Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image titled "Piece" by artist Robert Rauschenberg shows a square piece of light blue fabric with a pattern of gold-colored figures. The pattern consists of numerous human-like forms that are scattered across the fabric. The figures are depicted in various poses, appearing to be made of a textured, shiny material. A thin black line borders the fabric, and it is surrounded by a wider tan border. The tan border has small, illegible text in the top-right corner.
