Design 706 is a 1959 by F. Schumacher and Co., held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a wall of tiny, repeating triangles in soft browns, creams, and whites. The shapes form a grid that looks like a patterned wallpaper or fabric. Some triangles are darker, others lighter, but all fit together neatly. The top and bottom edges have small printed labels, like instructions for matching pieces. The name "Design 706" is written at the bottom, along with "Schumacher Hand Print." Look up F. Schumacher and Co. (American) to see more of their geometric designs.
