Textile, Medium: cotton Technique: mordant painted and dyed plain weave (chintz), Panel of chintz with a large scale, symmetrical arrangement of curving bands forming arcs which frame stylized plant and flower forms; heavy broad leaves cross the arcs, projecting into adjoining design areas. The curved bands and many of the parts of the leaves and other design areas are painted with fillings: dots, minute squares, and triangles in precise arrangements. In the arcs, areas of small scale, hexagonal-sided net suggest the ground of lace, with heavy points at one side and the inner sides of the arcs
