Waistcoat

Louis Maldarelli

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an abstract composition with a simple outline of a geometric shape resembling a rectangle with two slightly curved lines emerging from the top. The form is akin to a vest, with an area at the top that could be seen as a collar, outlined with a broken pattern that gives it some texture. This sketch is against a plain background, suggesting an abstract representation that evokes the idea of a garment, specifically reminiscent of a vest or waistcoat.
