Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork "Piece" by James Rosenquist features a predominantly white background with a gray border. The composition includes two large, circular motifs resembling flower or sunburst designs; one is positioned at the top center, while the other is at the bottom right. The top circle has brown lines radiating from the center and is surrounded by a darker brown border. The bottom circle has blue and white sections with yellow lines. The rest of the artwork is filled with intricate, swirling patterns and shapes in shades of brown, green, and blue. A small white rectangle in the bottom right corner contains the numbers "20.148.1054". The overall appearance is somewhat distressed, with visible signs of wear and tear on the surface.
