Irene M. Burge

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a decorative tin candle holder. The image presents a symmetrical design, with a circular central piece featuring intricate, ribbed patterns and stylized bird-like figures surrounding it. The design exudes a hand-crafted appearance and is marked with a frame-like outline at the bottom. The notation "CUT TIN CANDLE HOLDER EXACT SIZE 13''" provides context to the dimensions and craftsmanship intended in the design.
