This is a drawing of a detailed waistcoat. The image features a waistcoat with a high collar and an ornate button closure extending down the front. The fabric has a repeating geometric pattern. The artist included details on the pockets and seam work. To the right of the colored illustration, a faint pencil sketch provides a view of the back of the waistcoat, showing additional tailoring details and the structure of the garment.
