The dress depicted in the artwork is a charming representation of children's fashion from the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The dress is a sleeveless, green garment adorned with intricate, decorative details. The vibrant green color adds a playful and refreshing touch to the piece, while the detailed trim and patterns add visual interest and depth. The dress is reminiscent of the fashion trends during the thirties and forties, showcasing the elegant simplicity and attention to detail that characterized the era. Mary D. Porter's use of watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paperboard adds to the artwork's textured and tactile quality. The combination of these mediums allows for a rich and nuanced representation of the fabric and the folds of the dress, making it a standout piece in the realm of decorative arts and textiles.
