Weather Vane

Elmer G. Anderson

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a weather vane silhouette. It shows a dark figure resembling a man holding a musical instrument, perhaps a horn or wind instrument, to his lips. The figure is embellished with feathers or leaves. A narrow pedestal shape serves as the base. Text below the silhouette states, "WEATHER VANE, 1/4 ACTUAL SIZE," followed by the name "E. M. R. C. Anderson."
