Geoffrey Holt

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of architectural elements of a window structure. It includes a detailed study of a window with blue shutters set within a recessed alcove, textured walls with watercolor shading, and a red brick floor. Technical illustrations show cross-sections and views of window components such as "Meeting Stile," "Muntin," and "Shutter." There is also a drawing of a "Bolt & Hinge" with an ornate metallic latch mechanism. The elements are labeled and the artist's signature, "Geoffrey Holt," is included at the bottom.
