Woodcarving - Wing c. 1939

Gerard Barnett's "Woodcarving - Wing" is a detailed watercolor drawing of a single wing, likely from a larger wooden sculpture. The wing is intricately carved with feathers and appears to be from a bird or an angel. Barnett, known for his woodcarving and sculpture, captured the intricate detail and the aged patina of the wood through his realistic rendering. The drawing, created around 1939, showcases Barnett's ability to capture the essence of wood carving through a two-dimensional medium.
