Embroidered Cushion Cover

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Embroidered Cushion Cover by artist is rectangular with a red background and a white stitched border. The cover has a repeating pattern of eight blue and yellow teardrop shapes with rounded tops, each containing a yellow bird-like figure with a long tail and a cross-like design. Each teardrop shape is surrounded by white abstract shapes resembling leaves or feathers. The cover also features small blue flowers with yellow centers and black abstract shapes. The background of the cover is red with some visible stitching and texture, giving it a handmade appearance. The overall design is symmetrical, with the teardrop shapes arranged in rows of four. The colors used are red, blue, yellow, white, and black. The cover appears to be made of fabric, possibly cotton or silk.
