Woven Wool Bedspread

Christopher Hobbs

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a square with intersecting geometric shapes and lines. The design includes motifs resembling stylized birds or animal forms in blue and red. Surrounding these forms are smaller, polygonal shapes, creating a sense of symmetry and rhythm similar to tile or textile patterns. The overall effect combines familiar imagery with an abstract aesthetic.
