Sugar Merchant's Suit

Henry De Wolfe

National Gallery of Art

The image features a detailed illustration of a double-breasted white coat with tails at the center. Surrounding the coat are sketches of different parts of a garment pattern, including a back view of the coat, pants, and pattern pieces. The color palette is mainly monochromatic, with shades of gray accentuating the lighter sketches. The objects are arranged centrally, with the largest coat drawing in the middle, the back view on the left, and smaller garment patterns on the right.
