Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a square textile artwork titled "Piece" by an unidentified artist. The artwork features a brown background with a gold border. The central design consists of intricate patterns and figures in shades of brown, white, green, and red. The patterns appear to be a mix of abstract and figurative elements, including what seems to be people, animals, and foliage. The overall style suggests traditional or cultural influences. The artwork appears to be woven or embroidered. A small red stamp or text in the bottom-left corner reads "16.4.255".
