Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The piece by an unknown artist features a rectangular piece of fabric with a light beige color. The top section contains a repeating pattern of dark brown embroidery in a wavy line, with a design that includes what appears to be leaves, flowers, and geometric shapes. Below this section, there are two rows of identical designs. The top row contains three designs, and the bottom row contains five designs. The designs are symmetrical and feature various shapes including circles, ovals, and teardrops, with curved lines extending from them. The fabric is bordered by a thin tan frame around the edges. In the bottom-left corner, there is small red text that reads "02/12/2003".
