Infant's Bib

Virginia Berge

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a lace collar with blue ribbon accents. The artwork showcases a finely detailed textile work, likely representing a piece of historical fashion. The collar is composed of intricate lacework that forms a triangular shape with two shoulder pieces extending outwards. The outline of the lace is adorned with a light blue ribbon, tied into bows at each of the three triangular points. The lace pattern is meticulously sketched to highlight its delicate quality.
