The Andrew & Betsy Wyeth Study Center of the Brandywine Museum of Art confirms that this object is recorded in Betsy James Wyeth’s files.
Trammel Study depicts a metal hook traditionally used as a hanger for a pot above a cooking fire. Here, Andrew Wyeth uses the iron hook to hang a fur hat and a pair of leather boots. The composition showcases Wyeth's masterful depiction of varied textures, seen in the soft curves of the smooth leather boots, the thick fur, and the hard metal hook. This drawing is a study for the watercolor Trammel (1985, Private collection).
