Printed Textile c. 1938

This 1938 textile design by Sidney Liswood features a repeating pattern of a stylized classical urn encircled by a blue bird. The design is set against a blue and white floral background, with a repeating pattern of flowers and leaves. Liswood's "Printed Textile" showcases a design that would have been used to print fabric during the mid-20th century, and is a fine example of the decorative arts.
