Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The dark blue fabric has a gold-colored floral design in the top-left corner. A vertical white line and a horizontal gold line intersect in the middle of the fabric, dividing it into four sections. There are also some greenish-blue designs in the bottom-left corner. The fabric is mounted on a beige background, possibly a piece of cardboard or paper. Red numbers are printed at the bottom.
