Quilt

Katherine Hastings

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a floral pattern design. The drawing showcases a symmetric arrangement of green vines and red flowers creating an intricate geometric pattern. The design consists of interlocking shapes and floral motifs, with a central large red flower surrounded by smaller floral elements. There are two distinct sections of the pattern: one with a series of interconnected vines and another featuring a repetitive floral motif. The composition gives a sense of balance and symmetry typical of decorative textile designs.
