Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown rectangular fabric with gold-colored designs. The fabric has a gold border around the edges. The background of the fabric is dark brown with a subtle light brown floral pattern. Scattered across the fabric are two types of gold designs: circular medallions and floral motifs. The circular medallions have a symmetrical pattern of lines and shapes. The floral motifs are stylized and have curved lines. The overall effect is one of intricate, ornate decoration. "Piece" by Anni Albers.
