Clyde L. Cheney

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a fabric sample with blue stripes on a brown background. The drawing shows a square piece of fabric, with three vertical blue stripes evenly spaced across a brown woven textile. The texture of the textile is detailed, revealing the intricate weave of the material, which creates a slightly mottled appearance. Above the fabric sample, the word "Top" is handwritten. Below the fabric, the description "Striped Linsey" is written, along with the name "By Clyde Cheney."
