Masonic Sign

Edward F. Engel

National Gallery of Art

The image features interlocking curves and diamond shapes arranged symmetrically across a quadrilateral space. These shapes suggest symmetry and balance. They resemble floral patterns with circular motifs that could be seen as stylized flowers or petals arrayed around a central axis. Geometric forms interspersed throughout the design give the impression of stained-glass windows or decorative tiles, creating an ornamental design commonly found in architectural adornments or traditional artwork.
