Textile panel

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The textile panel, by an unknown artist, is a long, off-white piece of fabric with a rectangular shape and wavy edges, oriented horizontally. The fabric features eight vertical rows of decorative elements, with the outer rows being floral lace and the inner rows alternating between lace and cut-out eyelet details. The panel has a gathered, ruffled texture and includes two long, thin ribbons extending from the left side. The background of the image is a solid dark color.
