Trivet

Clarence W. Dawson

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a dark, curved metal rod bent into a triangular shape with extended ends on a light, cream-colored background. The color palette is minimal with the object in dark color and the background in a pale shade. The object is positioned centrally on the canvas with the widest part near the top and the two extensions pointing outward at the top corners. A small inscription or signature is visible in the lower right corner of the image.
