Tin Candelabra

E. Boyd

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a series of conical and cylindrical shapes stacked atop one another to create a multi-tiered structure with holes on its surface. Extending from this central form are thin, curving lines that end in flat, circular platforms. The overall composition is abstract with mechanical or architectural influences.
