Tile 1881 - 1884

This ceramic tile, produced by the Low Art Tile Works between 1881 and 1884, features a repeating pattern of stylized flowers within circular frames. The design incorporates a raised, almost three-dimensional quality, adding a tactile dimension to the aesthetic. This tile is a fine example of the decorative arts of the late 19th century, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship and geometric motifs that were popular during this period. The tile, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of decorative arts in the American artistic tradition.
