Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown rectangular piece of fabric with a woven pattern. The fabric has a light brown background with a darker brown geometric pattern. The pattern consists of interlocking diamonds and lines that form a repeating design. The fabric appears to be made of a thick, coarse material and has a rough texture. The edges of the fabric are rough and uneven. A white border surrounds the fabric. In the bottom-right corner, a small black text reads "20.148.720". In the bottom-left corner, a small handwritten text reads "720".
