Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork, titled "Piece" by artist, consists of a large textured gray square centered on a slightly darker tan background. The gray square's surface exhibits variation in tone, with a darker concentration on the bottom left and scattered lighter spots throughout. A thin dark border frames the gray square, separating it from the tan background. Two blurry numbers are handwritten on the bottom edge. The corner edges of the square are slightly rounded. The numbers appear to be in black ink.
