Hooked Rug c. 1936

This watercolor design for a hooked rug, "Hooked Rug", by Lillian M. Mosseller was created around 1936. The design features a central wreath of colorful flowers and leaves against a brown background, surrounded by a border of vines and grapes. The intricate details and delicate floral motifs highlight the artist's skilled hand and demonstrate the popularity of hooked rugs as a home decor element in the mid-20th century.
