Shoes

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a single, off-white leather shoe by artist Kurt Schwitters titled "Shoes". The shoe sits on a low heel and has a frayed upper edge around the opening. A decorative strip of ruffled fabric and lace diagonally crosses the shoe from the upper back to the lower front. The background is gray. The shoe appears to be vintage.
