Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The piece has a light brown background, and a border around it. The main area of the piece features a repeating pattern of small red and white designs. The designs consist of diamond shapes containing smaller floral patterns. Larger white floral motifs are scattered throughout the piece. The border is light brown with a slightly darker brown edge. A small white label with black text is attached to the bottom-right corner of the border. The label contains the numbers. The overall appearance suggests an old or vintage design.
