Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The piece by the artist is a square image of a fabric with a pink background and gold-colored designs. The fabric features a repeating pattern of various shapes, including circles, flowers, and leaves. The circles are large and contain intricate designs, while the flowers and leaves are scattered throughout the fabric. There are also some blue and gold half-circle designs at the bottom. The fabric appears to be old and worn, with some wrinkles and creases visible. The image has a thin gold border around it.
