Hans Korsch

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a decorative candlestick design. The illustration displays a detailed schematic of a candlestick with two views: a frontal elevation and a side elevation. The frontal elevation shows an elongated, ornate design with a spherical feature near the top and decorative curvilinear supports at the base. The side view reveals the structural details of the base, including curvature and angles, providing a comprehensive view of its design proportions. The drawing includes a small scale for reference on the side to indicate the design's precise dimensions relative to the illustration.
