Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The rectangular piece of fabric titled "Piece" by a now unknown artist shows a repeating pattern of curved lines in shades of blue, gold, and brown. The curved lines are outlined in brown and have a semicircular shape. The background of the fabric is a light blue color with small dots of white and gold. A gold border surrounds the fabric, and there are some red handwritten numbers in the bottom-left corner.
