Rolling Pin

Edward L. Loper

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large wooden object resembling a rolling pin. It has intricate carvings on its central cylindrical portion and slender handles on either end. The color palette consists of warm wooden tones, predominantly brown with lighter highlights on the edges. It is placed against a simple, off-white or light beige background, with line designs below that echo the carvings on the cylinder. There is a note or signature in small text at the bottom right corner of the image.
