Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown rectangular artwork with white wave design. The artwork has a brown surface with a slightly textured appearance. The dominant feature is a white wave design that covers most of the artwork. The wave design is made up of multiple white waves of varying sizes. The waves are depicted in different stages, some cresting and others crashing. Small white dots are scattered throughout the design, likely representing sea spray. In the bottom-right corner, there is a small red rectangle with white text inside. The text within the red rectangle appears to be non-English characters. The artwork titled "Stencil" is by an unidentified artist.
