Oak Leaf Pattern Quilt

Charlotte Angus

National Gallery of Art

The image displays an arrangement of curving and symmetrical red shapes set against a light background, forming an abstract pattern. These shapes resemble familiar objects like leaves or stylized floral motifs, arranged in a repeating grid across the fabric. A solid red border encircles the pattern, providing a defined edge that frames the abstract design. The overall composition suggests a textile piece with a decorative purpose, similar in style to traditional quilts or patterned tablecloths.
