Andirons

Hans Korsch

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of an ornate metal stand and its design schematic. The drawing features a metal andiron with a tall, ornamental finial on top of a cylindrical column with ridged detailing. The base of the column is supported by curved legs ending in round feet. A horizontal supporting bar with intricate pattern work connects parts of the structure. On the left, there is a smaller schematic drawing showing the object from the side, with a scale in inches marked below for measurement reference. The drawing is attributed to James O'Mara and the copy has been done by Hans Korsch.
