Boy's Dressing Gown

Edna C. Rex

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a long traditional-style garment with short sleeves at the center. The garment is primarily light pink with a detailed pattern along the edges depicting delicate red, pink, and white embroidery or printed designs. In the bottom left corner, there is a close-up square showing the intricate pattern of the fabric, highlighting its floral and ornamental details. The garment is hanging straight and takes up most of the image, with the close-up positioned to the lower left. The background is a plain, creamy beige color.
