Child's Stocking

Cora Parker

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a pair of intricately knitted socks with a lace pattern and a similarly patterned knitted piece beside them. The color palette is primarily soft creams with a hint of grayish tones, giving the items an aged, vintage appearance. The knitted piece is positioned to the left of the socks, which are laid out below and slightly to the right in a diagonal orientation. A signature, "Dora Wheeler," is located near the bottom-right corner of the image.
