Child's Bonnet

Melita Hofmann

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large, structured bonnet with pleated detailing and two prominent rosettes on one side. The bonnet is primarily a muted blue-green color. Positioned centrally, the bonnet appears to be facing slightly to the right, allowing a view of the intricate details and the way the fabric folds into the rosettes. The background is a plain, off-white.
