Bedspread c. 1937

"Bedspread" is a pencil drawing on paper by American artist Andrew Topolosky, created in 1937. It depicts a detailed floral pattern with a central motif of a bouquet in a basket. The intricate design suggests a bedspread, perhaps one of those traditionally made with elaborate needlework, which aligns with the title of the artwork. Topolosky's drawings often explored patterns and textures, often referencing traditional crafts and folk art, creating a sense of nostalgia and cultural heritage. This drawing, with its focus on a detailed design, captures the essence of folk art and its connection to everyday objects.
