Foot Scraper

Julius Bellamy

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a metal object with two elongated loops. The object appears to be a stirrup, featuring a central curved band and two arms that curve upward at the ends, each forming a loop. The drawing is rendered in a monochromatic palette, and the detailing highlights the textured surface of the object. The overall composition is simple, focusing solely on the stirrup without any background elements.
