Woman's Shoe

Marie Mitchell

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a shoe design. The image features a single black shoe with a mid-heel and detailing on its side. The shoe appears to be designed for formal wear, with a sleek shape and stitching around the lace eyelets. Next to the detailed shoe illustration are two simple line drawings showing top views of similar shoes. The composition is minimalistic with a focus on the craftsmanship and style of the shoe design.
