Powder Box

Vera Van Voris

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an epaulet box. The image features three schematic views of the box: an isometric view at the top, a top view in the center, and a side view at the bottom. The isometric view shows a three-dimensional representation of the box with rounded edges and cutouts. The top view illustrates the oval shape of the box with indents on the sides. The side view shows the elongated rectangular shape with sections presumably representing compartments within the box. The drawing is executed with clean, precise lines typical for technical or engineering sketches, emphasizing the structural layout and design of the epaulet box.
