Pocket Manicure

Alfred Walbeck

National Gallery of Art

Three objects are displayed on a light, neutral background: a closed straight razor with a wooden handle, a box of Wilkinson Sword razor blades, and a larger box with more detailed illustrations. The color palette is subdued with browns, grays, and hints of muted colors in the illustration. The razor is placed near the top, the box of blades slightly below and to the left, and the larger illustrated box at the bottom left of the razor.
