The drawing, dated between 1825 and 1900, showcases Crace's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create intricate patterns. His work is characterized by a fusion of historical styles, particularly the Rococo and Gothic Revival, which is evident in this design. This drawing is a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of Victorian era decorative arts.
