This 1770 "Piece" by the Oberkampf Manufactory, a prominent French textile producer, features a vibrant, repeating pattern of stylized figures, flowers, and garlands in shades of pink and red. The artwork is an example of the "toile" textile style popular during the 18th century, which employed a light background with detailed patterns. This piece is held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City.
