Textile

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The textile, by an unknown artist, features a rectangular piece of tan fabric measuring approximately 8.5 inches wide and 2.5 inches tall. The fabric showcases a repeating pattern of interlocking hexagons with floral motifs, predominantly in a darker shade of tan. A white sticker is affixed to the bottom-left corner with the number "3370" in black text. The fabric is set against a gray-blue background with faint pencil writing.
