Sleeve Band

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a long, narrow piece of fabric titled "Sleeve Band" by an unknown artist. The fabric is rectangular with a light-colored background and a darker border around the edges. The top portion of the fabric features two identical designs, one on each side of a central vertical line, each consisting of two plant-like figures with curved leaves and stems. The bottom portion of the fabric is densely covered in a symmetrical floral pattern in dark color, featuring flowers, leaves and stems arranged in a repeating design. The fabric appears to be made of a smooth material, possibly satin or silk, and has a few wrinkles and creases visible on its surface. The background behind the fabric is plain white.
