Appliqued Quilt

Mildred E. Bent

National Gallery of Art

This is a textile design featuring a repetitive floral pattern. The design includes a grid of floral motifs with green leaves and red flowers. The flowers have intricate designs using darker and lighter shades of red to add depth and texture. A horizontal band with a repeated pattern of flowers and branches creates a decorative border. The background is a neutral tone that highlights the vivid colors of the floral patterns.
