Book cover with circular designs and ornamental diagonal pattern 1800 - 1900

This anonymous book cover from the late 18th or early 19th century features a repeating pattern of stylized circular designs. The center of each circle is filled with a pink flower-like motif, surrounded by a teal ring and framed by a delicate, white ornamental chain that runs diagonally across the surface. This intricate design, reminiscent of wallpaper patterns popular during the era, would have added a touch of elegance to the book it adorned. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
