The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a square artwork titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The artwork features a large, light-brown flower-like shape with a scalloped edge and a pink center, positioned centrally. The flower-like shape has eight rounded petals and is outlined in white. The background consists of a beige base with a blue diamond pattern and blue floral designs within the diamonds. The blue designs are made up of curved lines and shapes, resembling leaves and vines. The entire artwork is framed by a thin gold border. In the bottom-right corner, a small white rectangle contains the numbers.
