Plate 1 c. 1942

"Plate 1" is a design by Louie H. Ewing (1908-1983), a textile designer, created in 1942. This artwork features a bold, geometric pattern composed of abstract zigzags, diamonds, and triangles, rendered in a vibrant red, blue, and white color palette. Ewing's designs were often characterized by their geometric simplicity and bold use of color, making them ideal for textile applications. This work, like many of Ewing's designs, would have been intended for use in fabric production.
