Woman's Night Cap

Virginia Berge

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a bonnet. The bonnet has intricate lace details and delicate patterns. It has ties that could be fastened under the chin. The material appears textured and soft, indicated by the attention to detail in the lacework. The background is a plain canvas. The artist's signature, "V. Bergé," is visible on the lower right side of the drawing.
