Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric with a tan border and a darker tan and blue patterned center. The fabric appears to be woven or textured. The pattern in the center features various shapes, including what appears to be flowers or leaves. The shapes are arranged in a seemingly random pattern. A vertical line of orange text on the left reads "96143900". The background behind the fabric is white. The title of the piece is "Piece" by artist Mark Rothko.
