Woman's Slippers

Edna C. Rex

National Gallery of Art

A single, well-worn slip-on shoe is centered in the image, taking up most of the space. The shoe is predominantly beige with darker brown and reddish-brown patches, particularly along the heel area. The color palette is neutral, made up of soft beiges, browns, and hints of reddish tones against the light, off-white background. The shoe sits horizontally in the middle, pointed towards the left side of the image.
