Piece

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Brown and gold square textile with a floral pattern, on a gray background. The textile has a ribbed texture and a repeating design of leaves and flowers in a lighter gold color. The pattern is intricate and woven into the fabric. The square is centered on the gray background, which appears to be a surface or a piece of paper. A thin white border surrounds the image on the right side. A small white rectangle with black text is in the bottom-right corner. The title of the piece is "Piece" and the artist is unknown.
