Textile

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a piece of fabric labeled "Textile" by an unknown artist. The fabric is rectangular with a pointed end on the right, predominantly burnt orange in color with green and brown floral patterns. The top of the fabric has green areas with a floral pattern. The bottom left features a large brown and white flower-like pattern. The fabric is bordered by a blue-grey background. On the bottom right, a blue and white patterned fabric is visible underneath, partially covered by the orange fabric. Two white labels are present: one in the bottom-left corner with "3383" and a partially visible label in the bottom-right corner with "3". The fabric appears to be a sample or swatch, mounted on a grey-blue background.
