Wall Sconce

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

This is a technical drawing of a wall-mounted candle holder design. The illustration shows detailed features of the sconce, including a large backplate with a central circular dish for holding a candle. Shaded areas add depth to the contours, with additional views and details at the bottom, such as a side profile and a close-up of the mounting system. The design is presented within a rectangular frame with labeled measurements and the name "Francis Law Durand" at the bottom right.
