Wrought Iron Balcony Railing

Aurelia Arbo

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an overhead view of the upper facade of a building with a roofline containing a dormer window and a square chimney stack. The building features a stippling technique creating various shades of grey for texture. A wrought iron balcony railing runs along the front with shuttered windows. Angled walls suggest the building extends further. The sky above is a light shade.
