Child's Dress

Marie Mitchell

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a dress design. It features a dress with a voluminous skirt, short sleeves, and a fitted bodice. The dress has a repeating pattern in horizontal bands alternating between intricate motifs and solid colors in rich, earthy tones bordered by blue strips. A small sketch in the top right corner illustrates an alternative view or design of the dress, focusing on its silhouette with fewer details. The background is plain.
