Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The piece by an unknown artist depicts a long, narrow, rectangular piece of fabric. The fabric is light brown with a paisley-like pattern in shades of green, gold, and blue. The pattern features repeating designs of leaves and teardrop shapes. The fabric appears to be frayed along the edges and has a few loose threads. A small, thin object, possibly a needle or pin, is positioned vertically to the right of the fabric. The background of the image is white.
