About this work
In eight sectors stand large egg-shaped, dotted medallions with an oval scroll and a bunch of flowers. On the ends of the ribs three large, hanging lily cups. Around the top of the parasol stands a star shape; the circumference consists of large shells, cut through by a heart shape and bordered by a hanging leaf wreath. The inner drawing of the flowers runs from a closed inner piece to a very open edge. The outlines are extra thick. Point de gaze de Bruxelles.
