Gloves

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of long, tan gloves titled "Gloves" by an unidentified artist. The gloves are made of what appears to be a light-colored, woven material with a ribbed texture. The gloves are pale pinkish-beige in color. They have five fingers each and extend up the arm. The left glove is intact, while the right glove has a seam visible on the back and a tear or cut on the bottom edge. The background of the image is a plain gray color. The gloves are laid flat, with the fingers pointing upwards.
