Plaid Homespun

Frank J. Mace

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a square swatch of blue and red tartan pattern. The image shows a rectangular swatch centered on a neutral background. The tartan pattern consists of blue intersected by red and black stripes. The style is reminiscent of Piet Mondrian, with a minimalistic and geometric approach. The details and color contrast highlight the texture and weave of the fabric.
