Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The "Piece" by an unknown artist depicts a square piece of fabric with a dark green background. The fabric features a repeating gold floral pattern that covers the entire surface. The gold floral pattern consists of large flowers and leaves on curved stems. The fabric texture is visible, exhibiting horizontal rows of thread. The edges are frayed. A white border surrounds the fabric, with handwritten text in pencil at the bottom left. A label with typed numbers is on the bottom right.
