Printed Quilt Patterns

William P. Shearwood

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of floral and geometric patterns. The image features a collection of seven diamond-shaped patterns arranged in a larger diamond formation, each showcasing a unique floral print typical of vintage or traditional textile designs. Additionally, there are two square sections on either side of the diamond arrangement, each with a simple illustration of red flowers with green leaves. The overall composition has a symmetrical and balanced design, with muted colors and a delicate, hand-drawn quality.
