Gloves

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of white gloves by artist titled "Gloves". The gloves are made of a thin, off-white material, likely leather or kid leather. The gloves have five fingers each and appear to be women's gloves. The gloves have a scalloped edge at the wrist. The gloves have small holes along the edge and on the palm side. The gloves are displayed against a gray background. The gloves are positioned with the fingers pointing upwards and slightly apart. The right glove is slightly askew. The gloves are old and worn with visible signs of aging and wear.
