The "Girandole" by William F. Shaw shows a group of four metal pieces with crystal prisms hanging from them. The pieces are on small square white bases. Two are on the left and right sides, one in the center, and one in the middle on the right side. The piece on the far left has a small top and a base that tapers outward. The middle piece on the left and right have a similar base but are wider at the top. The piece on the far right is similar to the piece on the far left. The metal parts have ornate designs on the top and bottom. There are multiple crystal prisms hanging from the top of each piece. The prisms are long and thin, and they are clear. The background is a plain light-colored wall. The lighting is bright and even.
