Carved Wood Panel

Clyde L. Cheney

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture shows a detailed carving of a flower with multiple blooms and leafy stems. It is presented within a rectangular wooden frame also crafted from dark wood. The floral relief is raised against a flat background, displaying intricate details of petals and leaves that appear three-dimensional and textured. It is centered against a plain, light-colored backdrop, highlighting the contrast between the dark wood sculpture and its surroundings.
