Blouse

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Blouse by Alexander Rodchenko shows a white long-sleeved shirt with red and black geometric patterns on the shoulders and sleeves. The blouse is off-the-shoulder with a V-shaped neckline. There are two vertical rows of red beads or embroidery down the center front. The sleeves have a pattern of red and black beads or embroidery in a zigzag or chevron design. The blouse appears to be made of a lightweight fabric, possibly cotton or linen. The background of the image is solid black.
