Large Pendant

Daniel Mignot

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an elaborate pendant or jewelry design. The design features a central starburst motif with sharp, geometric forms radiating from a circular center. This starburst is intricately connected to other geometric shapes and floral details. Below this central motif, a cross shape is integrated into the pattern, flanked by symmetrical decorative elements. Three pear-shaped forms hang elegantly. The arrangement is adorned with flowing ribbon-like forms that extend across the composition.
