Fichu

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Fichu by an unknown artist depicts a semicircular piece of intricately designed lace. The lace features a beige color with a complex pattern of interconnected loops and floral motifs against a dark background. A scalloped edge runs along the bottom and sides of the lace. A white tag is attached to the top left corner of the lace. The lace appears to be hanging from something. The background is a solid dark color.
