Description

Stylish and artsy no matter the weather.

 

Black and white umbrella featuring imagery of Alexander Calder’s mobile from the collection of the National Gallery of Art and on display in the East Building.

 

Alexander Calder's 76-foot-long mobile, Untitled, which he made in 1976 was one of Calder's largest works, and it was also one of his last, completed only a few weeks before he died. One of the extraordinary things about this mobile is that while it weighs nearly 1,000 pounds, it moves ever so lightly, powered only by currents of air. 

Nylon fabric. Black steel frame. Manual.

 

Folded: 9.5 inches long, Canopy: 42 inch arc.
