Woven Brocades

Dorothy Kiernan

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a floral pattern with large, stylized flowers and leaves on a flat gray background. There are soft pastels with pops of bright red, soft pink, pale yellow, pale green, and white. The floral design is central, flowing across the canvas. Below, there are two round sketches of floral elements in black and white, one on the left and one on the right, beneath the main pattern.
