Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a blue and brown textile titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The textile is rectangular and oriented vertically, with a blue background and a brown floral pattern. The blue background is a medium shade and has a visible vertical weave. The brown floral pattern consists of interlocking vines with flowers and leaves. The border around the textile is a light grey-beige color, with a slightly textured appearance. The border appears to be made of a different material than the textile. The overall appearance suggests a traditional or vintage textile.
