Vest

Lillian Causey

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a waistcoat. The image shows a detailed illustration of a double-breasted waistcoat with a striped pink inner lining and matching details. There are also two sketch outlines of the waistcoat in different styles that display variations in button arrangement and collar design. In the upper right corner, there is a pink swatch with diagonal stripes and a floral pattern, possibly representing the fabric design used for the inner lining of the waistcoat. The drawing highlights both the aesthetic design and practical aspects of tailoring.
