Composition avec bouquets de fleurs, frises de grappes et clochettes 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 yellow background filled with small flowers and leaves. The edges have bigger flowers in pink, blue, and red. There’s a white curved shape in the middle with more flowers and vines around it. The colors are soft and faded, like old paper. The tiny flowers repeat all over, almost like a pattern. The artist used light lines to fill in details. This looks like a design for embroidery on a vest. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to create shading.
