Child's Robe

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Tan-colored child's robe with long sleeves and a high neckline. The robe features a floral pattern with intricate designs. The fabric appears worn and frayed, especially along the edges and on the back, where it is significantly torn. The robe is displayed on a mannequin or dress form against a plain beige background.
