Dress Cape

Nancy Crimi

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a long cloak with a wide cape and a high collar, tied at the front with a pair of long ribbons. The cloak is in shades of muted gray and olive, with the ribbons in a darker brown hue. Positioned centrally, the cloak hangs down with the ribbons extending slightly past its bottom edge, gently spreading open. The collar is placed at the top against a plain, light background.
