Man's Dressing Gown

Jessie M. Benge

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a floral-patterned coat. The coat has an intricate pattern of flowers in various colors, set against a pale background. It features a broad collar and a belt at the waist. The flowers are intertwined with green vines. Shadows and shading give the coat a three-dimensional appearance, and it is placed against a plain backdrop.
