Ray Price

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a decorative iron fence with a central tree motif. The fence features an intricate design, with ornate spires and a detailed wrought iron pattern. The central section of the fence showcases a panel depicting a tree with drooping branches, enclosed by two white lambs resting beneath the tree. The artwork captures the intricate detailing of the ironwork, with careful attention to the curvature and interlacing patterns of the railings. The use of shading and perspective provides a sense of depth and dimension to the scene. The focus is on the central panel, offering both a functional design element and a visual focal point within the composition.
