Quilt Patches

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of fabric swatches arranged in a grid. Each swatch is a small square with different patterns and colors, organized in rows on a plain background. The swatches primarily display hues of red, with patterns such as floral and geometric designs. Additionally, there are two swatches in lighter colors with subtle patterns and one green swatch with an organic pattern at the bottom. Each swatch is labeled with a letter from A to M for categorization.
