Quilt

Therkel Anderson

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a floral pattern. The image showcases an intricate design composed of red flowers with green leaves arranged in a visually pleasing, symmetrical pattern. The flowers appear small and delicate, while the leaves add a sense of movement as they branch out around the flowers. The background has a subtle texture or pattern, providing depth and contrast to the vibrant floral elements. The artwork includes a small square in the lower left corner, which repeats the floral motif in a miniature version.
