Studie für eine Bordüre

Charles Sprague Pearce, 1890/1897

This is a drawing of a decorative border design. The image shows a horizontal arrangement of foliage, red berries, and a pink ribbon against a golden background. The leaves are elongated, rendered in different shades of green, and mixed with clusters of bright red berries. A pink ribbon weaves through the greenery, with loops and knots. On the right, a blue rectangle is bordered by curved and wave-like elements in golden hues. The composition is framed by outlines indicating depth and structure.
