The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a long, narrow, tan-colored textile. The textile is rectangular and laid flat on a surface. It appears to be made of woven material, possibly fabric or carpet. The surface it is laid on is light-colored and textured, possibly a carpet or rug. The rectangular textile takes up most of the image, with a small white rectangle in the bottom-right corner containing numbers.
