Piece of Calico Patchwork

Joseph L. Boyd

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a grid of small triangles arranged in a square, forming an abstract pattern. The triangles are intricately combined to create a quilt-like appearance, reminiscent of patchwork or textile designs. They feature various colors and patterns, including stripes, florals, and geometrics, creating an abstract mosaic effect. The overall result is a harmonious blend of contrasting designs, each triangle distinct yet part of a cohesive whole.
