Quilt

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

This is an image of a patterned quilt on a bed. The quilt features intricate designs in green, red, and white geometric shapes forming circles interlaced with leaf-like designs. Below the main image, there are three additional panels highlighting specific sections, patterns, or details found on the quilt. One panel focuses on a black and white geometric motif, another features a colorful floral embroidery with scripted text, and the third shows a red and green leaf pattern with quilted stitching. The quilt demonstrates a blend of geometric precision with decorative floral motifs. The layout suggests a catalog or design sheet presentation.
