Length

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork, titled "Length" by an unidentified artist, depicts a white fabric with a floral pattern. The fabric is rectangular and oriented vertically. The pattern on the fabric consists of small black flowers and stems with circular centers. The flowers and stems are scattered across the fabric in a seemingly random arrangement. The fabric has a few wrinkles and creases visible. The background of the image is white, suggesting it may be a museum or gallery catalog image. Handwritten text at the bottom reads "1979.200/2167:" There is additional printed text in the bottom-left corner that reads "216751/1979.200".
