Headdress

Eva Noe

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an incomplete outline of a person's upper body and head. The person faces forward with a faint outline of the nose and eyes. They have short, neat curls on the sides of the face and wear a large turban or headwrap. The turban is peach-colored with folds, a pin, and decorative cloth. The attire includes a lace-trimmed collar, a circular brooch at the neck, and a circular emblem near the right shoulder with scalloped edging. The background is plain.
