The painting depicts a floral pattern design. It features three circular floral shapes aligned vertically, each with a central floral motif surrounded by intricate, colorful petals. The flowers are mainly green and yellow, with hints of red and orange against a beige background. The composition is bordered by symmetrical, feather-like leaf patterns in brown. The artwork showcases an elaborate design with a symmetrical and ornamental floral theme, reminiscent of late 19th to early 20th-century design.
