Jacquard coverlet

H. Langden Brown

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a textile sample with intricate designs and patterns. The artwork shows a woven textile with multiple sections of different colored threads and designs. One section has floral and geometric patterns in red, gold, and blue tones. The fabric includes woven text with names and the date "1857." The textile shows precise stitching of patterns, including a bird motif and border decorations. The colors and textures create depth and complexity. The style is similar to an artist known for detailed representation of fabrics, like Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres.
