Coffee Mill

Clarence W. Dawson

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large wooden structure with a metal funnel attached to it, resembling a vintage hand-crank grinder. The funnel and crank handle are primarily in rustic, earthy tones such as browns and reds. The object is centrally positioned on a plain, off-white background. The funnel is at the top mounted on the vertical wood plank, and the metal handle extends to the right side. The overall color palette is muted with natural wood and metal colors dominating the scene.
