Quilt - Appliqued in Bellflower Design

Margaret Linsley

National Gallery of Art

This is an image of a decorative floral pattern. The composition includes an intricate design of red flowers with green leaves on a light background. The flowers are arranged in a stylized and symmetrical pattern within a bordered square. To the left and lower part of the square, there are crescent shapes and smaller red buds. The design is refined and may be intended for use in textiles or wallpaper, given its systematic layout and vibrant colors.
