Branding Iron

Geoffrey Holt

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a long, thin metal rod with a complex design at one end. Next to it is the outline of the design. The color palette is understated with shades of brown and black on a light beige background. The outline aligns vertically while the branding iron is placed diagonally. In the bottom right corner, the signature "Geoffrey Holt" is visible.
