Pattern for a Dress

Bessie Forman

National Gallery of Art

The image displays thin, straight lines and rectangular shapes within a bounded space. It consists of two vertical rectangular forms placed next to each other, with one slightly larger. Below them, a smaller shape with a curved edge is present. The composition resembles a blueprint or a pattern template commonly seen in technical or design drawings.
