Patchwork Quilt

Mary Berner

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an intricate textile design featuring a quilt-like pattern. The design includes star-like shapes made up of clustered petal forms interconnected to form a geometric pattern. The colors used are primarily mauve and white. Foliage motifs and linear patterns are present throughout the design, with a border featuring leaf and vine elements that mirror the central pattern.
