Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a piece of fabric with a repeating pattern. The fabric is light gray with a slightly textured appearance. There are eight circular designs on the fabric, each featuring a symmetrical floral pattern. The designs have an outer border consisting of small geometric shapes and an inner area filled with intricate floral patterns. The circles are arranged in three rows, with the top and bottom rows partially cut off. The fabric appears to be hanging vertically, with two small holes at the top center and a white border around the image. The title of the piece is "Piece" and the artist is unknown.
