Velvet panel 1959

This 1959 artwork, by an anonymous artist, consists of three fabric samples mounted on a velvet panel, each featuring a distinct geometric pattern. The samples, crafted from black velvet and accented with various colored threads, demonstrate a keen interest in textile design, showcasing the interplay of lines, shapes, and textures within the abstract forms. These samples, now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, highlight the artistry and innovation found in fabric design.
