Cap

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black mesh and solid fabric cap with a strap. The cap is divided into two sections: the top right section is made of smooth, shiny black fabric with horizontal ribbing, while the top left section is made of black mesh material with a repeating pattern. A long, thin black strap extends from the bottom left of the cap, with a small white tag or button visible at the end. The cap is positioned on a plain off-white background. Cap by artist.
