Stockings

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a pair of long, cream-colored stockings by artist not specified but titled "Stockings". The stockings are knee-high, made of fabric, and have a ribbed section at the top of the foot and lower leg. They are lying flat, side by side, with the toes pointing towards the bottom-left corner of the image. The fabric appears to be smooth and slightly shiny, with a few small wrinkles visible on the surface. There are two small dark spots on the right stocking and one on the left. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
