Study for a Border Design 1890 - 1897

This delicate pencil sketch, "Study for a Border Design," by Charles Sprague Pearce, is a testament to the artist's keen eye for detail. Created between 1890 and 1897, this small-scale drawing features a repeating pattern of stylized plant forms, suggestive of a border design for a larger work. The simple yet graceful lines create a sense of rhythm and movement, hinting at the potential for this design to enhance the overall aesthetic of a decorative object.
