Thimble Case

David P Willoughby

National Gallery of Art

Three distinct acorn components are visible against an off-white background: an acorn cap, a full acorn with the cap attached, and an acorn cupule. The color palette includes varying shades of brown, typical of acorns. The acorn cap is placed at the top, the full acorn below and slightly left of center, and the acorn cupule to the right of the full acorn.
