Content description:
Cut pile surface (wool?), probably worked into burlap backing with a needle. Colors and design reflect late 1960s interior design trends (bright fuschia, lime green, orange, and black on greenish-brown background). The intersection of elements creates an illusion of depth. S.B. Bast fiber ground is turned to the back on all sides. The textile is adhered to cardboard that has wood, square dowels attached along the sides to suggest a frame. Reverse not visible.
