Saddle

Rose Campbell-Gerke

National Gallery of Art

The image displays an ornate saddle with intricate floral decorations and two embroidered designs. The saddle is predominantly tan and brown, with accents of green, white, and blue in the embroidery. Floral embroidery lines the edges, while the embroidered designs feature a figure seated in a shell-like structure and an arrangement of flowers and leaves. The saddle is positioned at an angle, with the top left corner slightly elevated.
