Parasol

John Swientochowski

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a disassembled parasol, with parts of the handle, canopy, and tip displayed. The largest object is the green canopy with intricate green fringing. The color palette includes green, brown, and beige elements in the handle and tip of the parasol. The parts are scattered across a plain background; the canopy is on the right, the handle diagonally from the bottom left, and the metal tip stands vertically near the bottom of the image.
