Textile Sample from Sample Book

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image features a rectangular piece of fabric with a tan color and a repeating pattern of thin, darker tan lines arranged in a grid-like formation. The fabric appears to be mounted on a cardboard or paper backing, with a darker brown border around the edges. A small white label with black text reading "3774" is affixed to the top-right corner of the backing. The background of the image is a blue-gray surface, possibly a table or other flat surface.
