Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black fabric with brown, green, and beige designs. The fabric is square and has a beige border around it. The background of the fabric is black. There are several circular brown designs that appear to be made up of small, tightly packed lines. Scattered around the fabric are green and beige floral patterns. The green floral patterns have three petals and a long stem. The beige floral patterns have four rounded petals. The fabric appears to be a piece of textile, possibly silk or another type of woven material. The title of the piece is "Piece" by an unknown artist.
