Butter Molder

Della Button

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a fluid, curvilinear shape resembling an organic structure. It connects two bent, sinuous lines at the top and bottom. The top arches like a canopy with a soft, rounded texture, while the bottom appears as a flat base, creating a bent-legged form. Brown and earthy tones evoke a natural, wood-like appearance.
