Stockings

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black stockings made of fabric, likely cotton or nylon, with decorative beading on the front, extending from the top to the bottom of the stockings. The stockings are knee-high, with a seam running down the center and a smooth toe. The beading consists of small, shiny beads arranged in a linear pattern. The stockings are laid flat on a beige surface, with one slightly overlapping the other. The title of the image is "Stockings".
