Corset

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a cream-colored corset on a stand. The corset has a flared top and tapers down to a narrower bottom. It is fastened at the front with five small metal hooks and eyes. There are several vertical seams down the front and sides. Two long, thin ribbons hang down from each side, tied in bows. The corset is on a black pole with a yellow section near the top. The background is a plain gray color. The corset is by an unidentified artist, and is titled "Corset".
