Quilt

Douglas Campbell

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a patchwork quilt design with intersecting circles and curved lines forming geometric shapes in various fabric designs. The shapes resemble slices of circles and elongated ovals, creating an abstract composition that resembles petals or a blooming flower. The quilt features sections of pale blue fabric with floral prints and intricate patterns. The overall arrangement creates an intricate and colorful appearance reminiscent of a stained-glass window made of fabric.
