Endpaper

German 19th Century

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a pattern of delicate lines and scattered golden shapes on a green background. The gold shapes resemble small flowers and leaves. These elements give the impression of movement like vines or tendrils. The contrast between the gold and green highlights the decorative pattern, similar to intricate wallpaper or a textile design.
