About this work

This drawing shows bright flowers and leaves on a faded paper. The top part has a small rectangle with a branch of berries and leaves. The bottom part is a big bouquet of flowers in a basket. The edges have a thin blue line. The paper looks old and worn, with some marks and stains. This kind of drawing was used to plan designs for clothing. Look up embroidery next to see how these flower patterns might have been stitched.
