Embroidered Linen Collar

Grace Halpin

National Gallery of Art

Two large sketches of lace fabric designs are depicted on a plain background. The upper sketch shows a collar design with floral patterns, while the lower sketch depicts a lace fabric corner with floral and leaf motifs bordered by a scalloped edge. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of grey and black against a beige canvas. The collar sketch is positioned near the top center, while the lace corner design is slightly lower and to the right. A small piece of tape or label is visible near the left edge.
