Tablecloth

Elizabeth Valentine

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a square composition with a repeating pattern of cross-like forms, small circles, and rectangular lines. The design resembles a mosaic or tiled floor, with diamond-shaped arrangements similar to floral motifs. The geometric arrangement forms a quilt or embroidered textile impression. The structured artistry and repeated patterns give it a traditional handicraft aesthetic.
