Shaker Straw Bonnet

Mona Brown

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a bonnet with a textured straw-like material for the crown and a soft, gathered blue fabric for the brim and ties. The color palette is primarily beige and light blue. The bonnet's structured crown sits toward the upper portion, while the blue fabric drapes downward and ties dangle to the left side.
