Textile

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The textile, by an unknown artist, features a beige and white woven fabric with a repeating diamond pattern. The fabric is rectangular in shape and vertically oriented. The diamond pattern is made up of brown lines that form a chevron design. The diamonds are arranged in a symmetrical pattern, with one at the top, one at the bottom, and a smaller one in the center. The background of the image is a gray-blue color, with a rough texture visible around the edges of the fabric. A small white rectangle in the bottom-right corner contains the number "3394" in black text.
