Dancing Shoe c. 1936

Ann Gene Buckley’s “Dancing Shoe” (c. 1936) depicts a pair of intricately embroidered footwear with a single, red ribbon tied around each shoe. The shoes themselves are dark blue with embellishments in gold, pink, blue, and white. The artist depicts the shoes in a realistic style, highlighting the craftsmanship and detail of the embroidery. This watercolor painting, measuring 36.6 x 27 cm, demonstrates the artistic talent of Buckley, who was a prolific creator of detailed works.
