Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric with a repeating pattern. The fabric is off-white with a greenish-gray diagonal chevron pattern. Three gold-colored trophy-like motifs are evenly spaced across the fabric. A gold-colored stitched border is along the top edge. The fabric appears worn and frayed around the edges. A small white label with black text reading "96.14.1959" is positioned below the fabric. The background is a light gray color. The title of the piece is "Piece" by an unknown artist.
