Shirt

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a white shirt by artist James. The shirt is long-sleeved and made of a lightweight fabric, likely cotton or linen. The shirt is buttoned up the back with small buttons and has a high, standing collar. The cuffs at the end of the sleeves are frilled. The bottom of the shirt is longer in the back than the front and appears to have a rectangular piece of fabric sewn into the bottom hem. The shirt is displayed against a plain background.
