Door Hinge

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a door hinge. The hinge is made of dark metal with a long, thin rectangular piece connecting two spiral-shaped pieces on each end; each spiral shape curls outward. The hinge has four small round holes on the long piece for screws. The background is light gray with a black border around the edge; white writing on the border appears to have been scratched in. The image is the work of an artist titled "Door Hinge".
