Jacket

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a short-sleeved, cropped jacket made of beige lace. The jacket is lying flat with the front side facing up. It has a round neckline and short, puffy sleeves. The lace is intricately woven with a floral pattern. There are ties at the center front that would have been used to close the jacket. The jacket appears to be old and worn, with some areas of the lace frayed or damaged. The background of the image is dark gray. The jacket's title is "Jacket" and the artist is not specified but likely associated with a historical or textile context.
