Slippers

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Beige-colored slippers with a shiny fabric, likely silk or satin, featuring a textured pattern. The slippers have a low heel and a pointed toe. They are ankle-high with a seam running down the side and a seam across the top. One slipper is positioned with the toe pointing to the right, and the other is standing upright on its sole, with the toe end facing downwards. The background is a plain gray surface with a darker shade in the upper-left corner. The title of the image is "Slippers".
