Stencil

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown and white artwork titled "Stencil" by an unidentified artist. The artwork features a brown border around the edges, with a white background visible in the corners. Inside the border, there is a vertical striped pattern made up of thin brown and white lines. Overlaid on this pattern are four large flowers with brown centers and white and brown petals. The flowers are evenly spaced and symmetrical. Four diagonal strips with detailed bird illustrations overlap the flowers and striped pattern. The birds are depicted in brown and white, with detailed feathers. The artwork has a textured appearance, suggesting it may be a stencil or print. The overall design is symmetrical and visually striking.
