American 20th Century

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a floral and bird design. The artwork features a pattern with pink and green flowers on a beige background. Whimsical birds are spread throughout the composition in shades of pink and green, along with leaves and tendrils. Watercolor-like brushstrokes give the piece a soft appearance, and the style hints at a decorative theme, possibly for textile design.
