Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown metal plate with a rough texture and a rectangular shape. The plate has a dark brown border around the edges. The center of the plate features a design made up of white rectangles of various sizes, some with straight edges and others with rough edges, arranged in a seemingly random pattern. The white rectangles have a smooth texture and appear to be cut out of the brown metal, with some areas featuring vertical brown lines. The plate is set against a plain white background. Title: Stencil. Artist: not specified.
