Composition avec bouquet et guirlandes de fleurs, bleuets sur tertres et frises de fleurs stylisées, projets de broderies de gilet, XVIIIème siècle
1750
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
This drawing shows a light background filled with bright floral designs. There are three curved sections framed in blue, each packed with flowers, leaves, and small birds. The bottom edge has a row of tiny plants, and the top has scattered dots like seeds or rain. The flowers look hand-painted, with careful details like pink roses and green leaves. The birds are simple but add a touch of life to the patterns. Want to see how these floral designs might have been used in real clothing? Look up filigree.
