Man's Coat

Nancy Crimi

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an 18th-century coat design. The illustration features a long green coat with an intricate checkered pattern and floral embroidery that runs along the edges and cuffs. The coat is open at the front, revealing a light-colored vest beneath. It has wide sleeves with lace trim at the cuffs. On the right side of the main drawing, there is a smaller, simple line sketch of the coat from the back, showing more detail of the embroidery on the lower portion. The background is a plain, neutral color.
