Artist, American, active c. 1935

The image shows a large brown bonnet with a puffed structure and a ruffled edge around the face opening. The bonnet has two long brown ribbons attached for tying under the chin. The color palette is earthy, dominated by various shades of brown, giving the bonnet an appearance of being made from a textured fabric. The bonnet is centered and positioned slightly turned, so one side of the bonnet is more visible. The ribbons hang downward and to the left side of the bonnet, maintaining a relaxed shape.
