Wedding Dress

Lee Hager

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a dress. The drawing features an elegant, long gown with voluminous skirts and detailed patterns, highlighted by delicate shading and texture that suggest a silky or satin-like fabric. The dress is embellished with intricate ornamental designs around the neckline and shoulders. A faint outline sketch in the background depicts the back view of the dress. The dress lacks a mannequin or figure to wear it.
