Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a square piece of fabric titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The fabric features a light beige color with a repeating diamond pattern. The diamonds are formed by darker beige lines that intersect in the middle, creating a grid-like design. The fabric has a rough texture and appears to be made of a woven material. The edges of the fabric are rough and uneven. The background behind the fabric is white. A small label at the bottom right corner of the image contains a series of numbers.
