Evening Dress

Ray Price

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a long-sleeved dress. The image features an illustration of a floor-length, long-sleeved dress depicted in a soft green hue with subtle yellow highlights. The dress has a full-length central seam down the front. The sleeves are slightly puffed at the shoulders, tapering into fitted cuffs. To the right of the main illustration, there is a smaller sketch outlining a simplified back view of the dress, which appears to be gathered at the top. The drawing is presented on a neutral background.
