Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of fabric with a repeating pattern. The fabric is gray and brown, with a floral or paisley design. It appears to be a fragment, as it is torn and frayed around the edges. The fabric is positioned vertically on a white background. Some of the fabric's right side is missing. A handwritten number, "96.14.92", is written in pencil at the bottom of the image. The title of the piece is "Piece" and the artist is not specified.
