Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The piece by artist James Rosenquist is a rectangular piece of fabric or textile with a pinkish-red background. The fabric appears worn and frayed around the edges. The fabric features a floral pattern in shades of brown, gold, and green. The flowers appear to be embroidered or printed on the fabric. The fabric is laid flat on a grey surface, possibly a table or countertop. The overall appearance suggests that the fabric may be a piece of clothing or a decorative item.
