Shoes

Archie Thompson and Albert Rudin

National Gallery of Art

The image displays two large old brown leather shoes. One shoe is facing upwards to show its sole, while the other is lying on its side. The color scheme is mostly brown with highlights and shadows. The shoes are slightly overlapping, with a brown lace coiled neatly to the bottom right against a plain background.
