National Gallery of Art

The image shows a full-length dress with a wide neckline and voluminous puffed sleeves tapering down to fitted cuffs. The dress is depicted in a deep green hue with horizontal bands near the hem. The fabric appears soft, and the full skirt suggests a vintage design. A smaller sketch of the back of the dress is included in the upper right corner, showing additional details. The drawing indicates a focus on fashion design or historical costume illustration.
