War Hat

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The War Hat, by an unknown artist, is a conical hat with a wide brim. The hat is primarily reddish-brown and gold in color. It has a tall, narrow cone-shaped top that tapers to a small ball at the very top. The hat's wide brim is flat and has a decorative edge. The hat is decorated with intricate gold designs and patterns, including lines, shapes, and other geometric motifs. The hat appears to be made of metal and has a reddish-brown patina. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
