Napkin of linen damask with a naturalistic flower pattern, Napkin of white linen with a naturalistic flower pattern. From a tuft of large flowers and leaves in the middle, a set of branches with large flowers and leaves and (below) a calabash-like fruit originates both upwards and downwards. The branches first bend towards the edge but come together again at the bottom in a flower, from which fine branches spring back that fill the cartouches formed by the pivoting of the branches. Branches along the edges also seem to grow from the middle branches. Between the heavy, naturalistic flowers

From a tuft of large flowers and leaves in the middle, a set of branches with large flowers and leaves and (below) a calabash-like fruit originates both upwards and downwards. The branches first bend towards the edge but come together again at the bottom in a flower, from which fine branches spring back that fill the cartouches formed by the pivoting of the branches. Branches along the edges also seem to grow from the middle branches. Between the heavy, naturalistic flowers and leaves very fine flowers, cutlery and twigs with small leaves that illuminate the whole.
