Embroidered Jacket

Isabelle De Strange

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a garment design. The main portion of the image shows a detailed design of a garment with a swirling floral embroidery pattern. Below this, there are two schematic drawings of the garment from different angles - a front view and a side view. The upper part of the drawing emphasizes the ornate decorative design, filled with detailed lacework and embroidery. The drafter has highlighted the garment's structure and artistic elements by contrasting detailed patterns with simpler, line-drawn schematics underneath.
