Descriptions

Description
Page 1 of sketchbook:
Three labeled sketches/diagrams for (wall?) sculpture(s?). Notes are nearly indecipherable, but seem to relate to materials and details of hanging or holding piece together. Also included in notes is a mention of Second Roebling, though unclear if this sculpture is itself Second Roebling. Signed and dated in lower right.
