Iron Grille at Window

Harry Mann Waddell

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an ornate window grille. The drawing features a detailed iron grille design with swirling, decorative ironwork enclosing a window. The grille is composed of vertical and horizontal bars forming a grid pattern, with several scroll-like embellishments at the intersections and edges of the grid. The window has an arch at the top, with shadowing indicating depth and suggesting the presence of stone or brick architecture around it. The background is kept minimal.
