Stencil with Pattern of Parallel, Undulating Lines

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Stencil with Pattern of Parallel, Undulating Lines by Bridget Riley has a dark brown wooden frame with a thick border. The frame surrounds a stencil artwork with a repeating pattern of parallel, undulating lines. The lines are white and curved in a wavelike motion on a dark brown background. The lines are evenly spaced and run horizontally across the piece. A small white label with illegible writing is on the bottom-right corner of the frame. The background behind the frame is plain white.
