Boy's Suit

Ruggiero Pierotti

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a vintage outfit composed of a coat and trousers. The painting features a brown velvet jacket with brass buttons, paired with vertically striped cream trousers. A large white necktie completes the ensemble against a plain backdrop to emphasize the clothing. The jacket's texture and deep color contrast with the lighter, softer fabric of the pants. This is in the style of contemporary realism, capturing the textures and materials with precision.
