Quilt

Therkel Anderson

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a quilt design. The central focus is a symmetric, colorful quilt pattern featuring a pink flower with green leaves on a white background. The quilt design is composed of quilted patterns that mimic floral and feather motifs. The edges of the quilt design are bordered by a pink, curved design element. In the upper right corner, there is a smaller representation of the entire quilt pattern. The design includes attention to detail, symmetry, and color balance.
