Design for a Floral Pattern 1878 - 1888

Christopher Dresser's "Design for a Floral Pattern" (1878-1888) is a detailed and intricate drawing of a floral motif. This design, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the artist's interest in stylized floral forms, a hallmark of his designs. Dresser's work reflects the Aesthetic Movement, which embraced beauty and craftsmanship in design. This pattern, with its vibrant blue and green hues, would have been suitable for wallpaper, textiles, or other decorative applications.
