Coverlet c. 1940

"Coverlet" is a design by Cornelius Christoffels, created around 1940. It is a geometric textile design, executed in blue, brown and pink. The artwork displays a series of patterned squares within a central, larger square. The repeated pattern, with its focus on precise lines and symmetry, hints at the aesthetic ideals of the Bauhaus movement, even though the design was created around a decade after the closure of the Bauhaus school.
