Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Square brown and white artwork titled Stencil by artist M.C. Escher. A brown border surrounds the artwork. The design consists of intersecting curved lines forming a grid pattern. The curved lines are more densely packed at the edges and less dense towards the center. Small clusters of four-petaled flowers are scattered throughout the design. The background of the artwork is white. The artwork appears aged and worn. A small white sticker is on the bottom-right corner.
