Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a square piece of fabric with a gold pattern on a white background. The fabric is titled "Piece" and is by an unknown artist. The fabric is cream-colored and appears to be made of a textured material, possibly linen or cotton. It features an intricate gold pattern that resembles a floral design, with curved lines and shapes. The gold pattern is made up of small, raised dots and lines that give it a textured appearance. A small white tag with black text is attached to the left side of the fabric, bearing the numbers "96.14.426". The background of the image is a plain light gray color. A small beige rectangular piece of paper is taped to the bottom of the fabric.
