Printed Textiles by Francis Bruner, 1935-1942

Created between 1935 and 1942, this sheet acts like a 1930s mood board for a textile designer. The top-left square is all about strict, geometric order with its tiny triangles, while the other three panels loosen up with playful white flowers and bold, fan-like shapes. Signed at the bottom, these fabric samples show how artists of the era balanced mathematical precision with organic beauty, likely pitching these ideas for mass-produced home decor.
