Desk

Lawrence Phillips

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a desk design. The drawing shows a front view of a desk with ornate features and a draped central section. The desk is composed of three main sections: two outer rectangular sections with carved detailing and a central curved section with a draped fabric appearance. The wood grain is highlighted with fine lines to suggest texture and depth. Above the desk illustration, there are additional sketches and notes that appear to be design details or architectural references.
