Philippe de Lasalle

Cleveland Museum of Art

White fabric with a rounded square shape and a central design. The central design features a man sitting on the floor playing a stringed instrument in a garden scene. The man is wearing a pink and grey outfit. He sits on a rug in front of a pink gazebo and next to a potted plant. There are various flowers and leaves surrounding him. A double border surrounds the central design. The inner border is gold with a patterned edge, and the outer border features a repeating pattern of flowers and leaves in shades of green, pink, and purple. The fabric has a worn and aged appearance.
