Is this a stylized flower or plant?

What do you think?

Thanks!

Hard question - quick answer - no, I wouldn't say so. Elements of stylized flowers, for sure. I see thistles and certainly leaves around the border - and flowers... I kind of get Moroccan vibes.

Looks like a thistle, sorta.

My first thought was a Hungarian pattern. It reminds me also of thistle which is a recurring pattern in Hungarian designs. Also, the color are pretty much the colors of the Hungarian flag.

No expert here, but it does look like it could be part of a folk costume... Eastern Europe could be a possibility.

Thanks, Barbara and Karin.

Well I see plenty of tulips! It doesn't say hungarian to me.

Good eye, Melanie. I was so focused on the larger part of the print I didn’t notice the tulips.

I keep looking at this print and keep thinking of the Caribbean islands. I wonder if it may be from Barbados or Jamaica.

That islands was my initial thought too MJ.
