Lace

Gordena Jackson

National Gallery of Art

A large rectangular piece of light brown fabric is adorned with intricate white lace patterns along its right edge. The lace design features floral motifs, with curving lines connecting the flowers. The color palette is composed of light browns and whites, creating a soft contrast. The lace begins near the top right corner, extending down the right side and covering a portion of the bottom right corner, while the rest of the fabric remains plain on the left.
