Amazing Early 20th C.Ship Building Scaffolding Real Photo Postcard brittan animals The vase is signed on

The vase is signed on the bottom but I am uncertain of the maker

I like utilitarian signs that have the capacity to signal meaning based on context

And the shape of the ferrule

Pre WWII I would guess

I believe he is made of plaster over wood

Amazing Early 20th C.Ship Building Scaffolding Real Photo Postcard brittan animals The vase is signed onI find this photograph pretty incredible, documenting the vast, elaborate scaffolding used for constructing what appears to be a steel ship. The image is a bit over exposed, but for me this makes the dense matrix of beams feel all the more delicate, skeletal, and rather otherworldly, and the shadows against the bow of the shop are pretty fantastic too. 3 1 2" x 5 3 8" with a postcard back with a few pencil scrawls on it. Very good condition.
