Dress

Julie C. Brush

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a dress. The drawing depicts a long, full-skirted dress with intricate floral and bird patterns against a reddish-brown background. The dress has long sleeves and a fitted bodice, with detailing around the shoulders. The fabric design includes blue, green, and purple accents, particularly in the floral motifs and the bird. In the upper left corner, there is a close-up illustration of the fabric pattern. On the right side, a simple line sketch provides a back view of the dress.
