About this work
A pure rectangle shows an endless branch of fine weeping willow leaves within a pearl border and a string of rosettes. In the ends the pearl border is laid in a heart shape which encircles a bunch of roses and daisies. In the corners stand large oak leaves. Leaf scrolls cut through the pearl border and divide the space into compartments with flower branches. Point de gaze de Bruxelles.
