Man's Bolero

Syrena Swanson

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a jacket featuring elegant ruffled details along the front opening, the ends of the sleeves, and around the torso area. The jacket is depicted in a soft, pastel-like color. The shoulder area has a slight puff, adding volume to the design. The artwork demonstrates a focused attention to detail, with the ruffles carefully illustrated to highlight texture and form. The overall composition centers the jacket against a neutral background.
