Carpenter's Clamp

Alexander Anderson

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large wooden clamp with two tall, vertical blocks connected by two horizontal screws, each with a dark knob at either end. The color palette is primarily brown, with the natural wood tones of the clamp contrasting against a plain, light tan background. Positioned centrally in the image, the clamp is angled slightly to the right, with the handles extending outward from the left and right sides.
