Waistcoats

Isabelle De Strange

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of two waistcoats with accompanying fabric swatches. The drawing showcases two distinct waistcoat designs side by side, each detailed with shaded lines to show texture and form. The top waistcoat is light-colored and patterned, buttoned up to the collar with defined stitching along the edges. Below it is a swatch showing a detailed pattern. The bottom waistcoat is darker and less detailed, suggesting a simpler pattern. Next to it is a dark swatch with small, faint designs. The drawing includes handwritten annotations.
