Bonnet

Ruth Bialostosky

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a decorative bonnet. The drawing shows an elaborate bonnet with cross-hatching and shading for texture. The bonnet has a bow on top made of striped fabric, and a ruffled edge. Vertical stripes on the fabric imply soft material, and the drawing captures folds and pleats. The bonnet also features tiny patterns along the edges for added detail.
