Waistcoat c. 1937

"Waistcoat" is a simple line drawing of a man's waistcoat, created by Mae A. Clarke around 1937. The artwork, executed in graphite on paper, is a minimalist depiction of a common article of men's clothing from the era. Clarke, an artist known for her detailed drawings and illustrations, may have created this piece as a study for a larger work or as a personal exploration of form and composition. The drawing's focus on the waistcoat's shape and structure emphasizes its functionality and traditional design.
