Woman's Shoe

Columbus Simpson

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a high-heeled shoe with a pointed toe and a flower-like embellishment near the front. The shoe is depicted in soft pastel colors such as light pinks and creams with subtle shading. It is centered, slightly off-centered to the right, and tilted to show its side profile. In the lower left corner, there are outline sketches of the shoe's sole and interior.
