About this work
This drawing shows three floral patterns on a faded paper background. The top left corner has a vertical vine with pink and yellow flowers. Below it, two rectangular designs frame bright bouquets of flowers in yellow, pink, and blue, all outlined with a thin gold border. The bottom section looks like a long strip of flowers and leaves, with a scalloped edge at the bottom.
The paper has some stains and marks, like a red number in the top right. The handwriting at the bottom says *"patron moyen"*, which might hint at who this was made for.
