Iron Gate

Clarence W. Dawson

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an ornate iron gate attached to a simple brick wall. The illustration shows a wrought iron gate with a symmetrical design, pointed tips on the vertical bars, decorative curls at the top, and a finial in the center. The gate is between two vertical posts with ball finials. The wall is outlined simply, integrating the gate into the structure. There is a signature by C.W. Dawson at the base of the wall. The background is a plain, light color.
