Cast Iron Balcony

Thomas Byrne

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a rose-themed cast iron railing. The drawing depicts an ornately designed railing featuring intricate rose motifs and decorative elements. A repeating pattern of floral decorations incorporating roses is shown, with lush, swirling ironwork enhancing the aesthetic. A detailed aspect ratio sketch within an inset provides dimensions and a closer look at the pattern. The design's perspective suggests a railing descending along a staircase or inclined surface. Below the main image, it is labeled as "Rose Design Cast Iron Railing."
