The title of the piece is "Piece" by the artist Anni Albers. A close-up photo of a sample piece of fabric with a peach-colored background and a brown floral patterned design. The fabric is square and appears to be made of a textured material. There are other fabric swatches in the background, one blue and one brown. The swatches are placed on top of a gray surface. A small piece of white paper with a series of black numbers printed on it sits at the bottom of the fabric.
