Woman's Costume

Elizabeth Moutal

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a brown dress with long sleeves and a high collar. The dress is made of a textured fabric with a large, cape-like collar extending over the shoulders. The dress reaches down to the floor with pleats and a decorative hemline. Next to the dress is a simpler line drawing outlining the garment's structure. The background is uncomplicated, highlighting the dress as the main element of the composition.
