The Metropolitan Museum of Art

"Piece" by James Rosenquist: Vertical rectangular artwork with a thin light-brown border around the edges. The background of the artwork is dark purple. The artwork features a repeating pattern of abstract, irregularly shaped gold-colored cloud-like forms. The cloud-like shapes have intricate details and are interwoven with flecks of red, blue, and pink throughout. The overall effect is one of shimmering, metallic color against a dark background. The border around the artwork is a thin, light beige or off-white color.
