Decorative Panels

Peter Flötner

National Gallery of Art

The image shows black shapes on a white background arranged into two rectangles and two circles. The designs within these shapes consist of swirling, interlocking lines. The circles suggest mandalas or floral designs, while the rectangles resemble decorative borders in architectural designs. The style is elaborate and reminiscent of antique engravings or intricate filigree in jewelry.
