Spur

Harry Mann Waddell and Eva Fox

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a single ornate spur with decorative details on the metal and a rowel with multiple points. The color palette consists mainly of metallic tones with a combination of silver and gray, and subtle hints of blue in the decorative inlays. The spur is oriented diagonally in the center of the image against a plain background, with the rowel on the left and the strap buckle on the right. The text “PEARCE PREAH MANISSA” is visible on the bottom right of the image.
