Study for a Border Design

Charles Sprague Pearce, 1890/1897

The image shows a composition of zigzag and angular shapes converging along a central vertical line resembling the spine of a leaf. The abstract arrangement features a combination of earthy brown, muted green, and deep blue colors against a plain backdrop. The curved boundary enclosing the pattern forms an elongated arch.
