Chintzes from Quilt

Catherine Fowler

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of textile patterns. It features two distinct textile designs displayed side by side on a plain background. The pattern on the left is a subtle, quilted design with vertical lines and delicate floral motifs in soft colors, primarily in cream and light brown shades. The right pattern is a bolder, more geometric design with diagonal lines in a brown background, interspersed with intricate blue and red floral motifs. This composition highlights the contrast between the two patterns.
