Hat

American 20th Century

National Gallery of Art

The image shows the upper part of a person's head and neck area, without facial features or detailed body depiction. The person's hair is styled neatly, appearing to be pulled back and upward from their face, with a detailed sketch of wavy hair. A decorative element is present in the hair: a hairpiece or headband with leaves and a prominent red flower. Additionally, there is a small sketch of a hand holding a similar hairstyle accessory parallel to the head. The background is plain and unadorned, with an off-white or light beige color.
