Parasol

Lillian Causey

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large, open parasol with intricate black lace and a matching bow, as well as a smaller, closed parasol beneath it. The color palette consists primarily of black for the lace detail and a light beige for the background, creating a striking contrast. The open parasol is positioned towards the top right corner with its long handle extending diagonally down to the right, while the smaller parasol lies towards the bottom left corner, parallel to the larger one.
