Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a rectangular piece of fabric against a grey background. The fabric is titled "Piece" and is by an unnamed artist. The fabric is dark blue with a subtle texture, featuring small, intricate white and light blue patterns woven throughout. The fabric's edges are rough and frayed, with the top edge being slightly uneven. A visible crease runs horizontally across the center of the fabric. The fabric's surface exhibits a subtle sheen, with some areas appearing slightly darker or lighter due to the texture and pattern. The background behind the fabric is a solid light grey color.
