Study for a Border Design 1890 - 1897

This study for a border design, created by Charles Sprague Pearce between 1890 and 1897, showcases a simplified, stylized branch with leaves and berries against a blue and tan background. The artist's use of color and line create a sense of movement and repetition, which would have been effective in a larger design. This is a small but significant piece of Pearce's work, demonstrating his talent for decorative arts and his ability to capture the essence of nature in a simplified, artistic form.
