"Piece" by artist Anni Albers. Rectangular fabric with a floral pattern in shades of green, brown, beige, and blue. The fabric shows a dense arrangement of flowers and leaves. The flowers have rounded petals and are various sizes. Some flowers are light beige with darker centers, while others are green or brown. Leaves are irregularly shaped and vary in color from light green to dark brown. The background of the fabric is a mottled mix of greens, browns, and blacks. Edges of the fabric are rough and uneven. A thin white border surrounds the fabric.
