"Piece" is an 18th-century silk tapestry woven by Giovanni Baritta and the Marzari Sons in the Quarter of San Giacomo, Venice. The tapestry is a fine example of Venetian silk weaving with intricate details of floral motifs, possibly depicting the Venetian flora, and a trophy of arms in the lower section. The tapestry, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, showcases the refined craftsmanship of Venetian silk weaving in the 18th century.
