Toy Wagon

Philip Johnson

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an old-fashioned horse-drawn cart with two brown horses at the front and a large carriage behind them. The carriage is primarily green with a red panel on its side displaying the text "G.A. SCHWARZ TOYS, FANCY GOODS, 1006 CHESTNUT ST. PHILA, PA." The color palette includes earthy tones from the horses, green and red on the carriage, and touches of black and white on the roof. The horses are on the left-hand side, appearing to be in motion, while the carriage, with its four large spoked wheels, extends to the right.
