The image depicts a historical corset by an unknown artist, titled 'Corset'. The corset is made of off-white fabric, likely cotton or linen, and features a structured design with a front busk and back lacing. It has two long straps that extend from the top of the shoulder area, designed to tie around the back. The front of the corset is adorned with a rigid panel and small metal eyelets for lacing. The background of the image is a plain gray color, providing a neutral contrast to the detailed texture and construction of the corset.
