Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a tan-colored rectangular piece of fabric with floral patterns in the corners and center. The fabric is framed by a light tan border. The inner fabric is slightly lighter than the border. There are four floral patterns, one in each corner. The bottom and top center of the fabric have a slightly darker tan floral design. The bottom left corner has small red text that reads "96.14.1999". The image appears to be a close-up of a piece of fabric mounted on a larger piece of fabric. The title of the piece is "Piece" by an unknown artist.
