Cradle

Harry King

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden cradle with a distinctive grain pattern as the main object in the center. The color palette is mostly brown tones from the wood against a light-colored background. The cradle is placed centrally with its profile facing sideways, displaying both the rounded ends of the rockers and the simple, rectangular design of its sides and base.
