Bonnet

Bessie Forman

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a bonnet and cape, along with sketched outlines. It features a detailed rendition of a bonnet and a capelet, both with what looks like textured patterns. The bonnet has dark ribbons or bows. Below the capelet, there are shapes resembling boots or stirrups. Two pencil outline sketches of the bonnet and cape are next to the main drawing. The paper background is neutral.
