Pineapple Quilt

Mildred E. Bent

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of pineapples in a patterned arrangement. The image features repeated motifs of pineapples surrounded by leafy branches in a grid-like layout. The background is muted grey, highlighting the bright orange hue of the pineapples. The design is bordered by a wavy line that contains smaller floral and fruit embellishments in red, orange, and green tones. The overall aesthetic suggests a detailed and intricate embellishment typical of a decorative fabric piece. This is in the style of traditional textile illustrations or botanical art.
