Cast Iron Fence Railing

Ray Price

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of architectural details featuring cast iron designs. The image illustrates a "Cast Iron Acorn Design", displaying decorative wrought iron with intricate acorn-like motifs used as part of a fence or railing. The composition includes a detailed, close-up view of the ornate ironwork alongside a broader architectural context showing the application of such designs in a building's exterior. The use of delicate line work captures the elegance and complexity of the design, and precision is evident in the architectural renderings and measurements also included in the drawing.
