Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a long, thin, vertical rectangle of fabric. The fabric is made up of tightly woven threads that are a light brown color with a slightly shiny appearance. The fabric has a rough texture and appears to be made of a thick, coarse material. The edges of the fabric are rough and frayed. The background behind the fabric is white. At the bottom of the image, a small white rectangle contains black text that reads "20.148.382". The fabric appears to be titled "Piece" and is by an unidentified artist.
