Wall Painting, Restoration Drawing from Reassembled Fragments c. 1940

This is a restoration drawing of a wall painting created by Gerald Transpota in 1940. The drawing shows a section of a wall decorated with a repeating pattern of intricate floral motifs, intricate lines, and dotted shapes, all drawn in delicate shades of pink. It is possible that the drawing is meant to be a copy of an earlier piece. This type of wall painting is characteristic of the Art Deco style, popular in the first half of the 20th century. The drawing's delicate execution and the repeating geometric pattern are typical of this style.
