Old Fashioned Quilt

Marie Lutrell

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts intersecting curved lines forming a grid of circular and petal-like shapes in red and beige tones. The design gives the impression of a series of overlapping leaves or a geometric floral motif. Small dot details within the red areas add texture to the pattern.
