Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of fabric titled "Piece" by an unknown artist. The fabric is divided into three sections. The top-left section is a smaller rectangle with a blue background and a green circle. The green circle has a gold floral design. The top-right and bottom sections are larger rectangles with a dark blue background and a gold floral design. The gold floral design on the top-right and bottom sections appears to be the same. The gold floral design consists of leaves and flowers. The fabric appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of aging. The background behind the fabric is gray.
