Scroll 1938

"Scroll" is a design drawing created by Max Fernekes in 1938. The artwork depicts an intricate, curvilinear design with a prominent spiral motif and stylized floral elements, reminiscent of the Art Nouveau style. Fernekes's detailed drawing, showcasing a bracket or architectural element, likely served as a blueprint for metalwork or a similar decorative application. The artist's delicate lines and shading create a visual sense of depth and texture in the design.
