Sleeve Band

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of fabric with floral pattern. The fabric appears to be a repeating design. The pattern features flowers with rounded petals and leaves. The flowers are large and prominent, while the leaves are smaller and scattered throughout. The background of the fabric has a textured appearance, with small dots or points that create a subtle contrast to the smooth curves of the flowers and leaves. The overall effect is one of intricate detail and ornate decoration. Sleeve Band by an unknown artist.
