National Museum of American History

Object Details

Jullien, A.
Description
The three points in space are represented at the bends in the three wires at points (a, a’), (b, b’) and (c, c’). The red lines connect the points in pairs showing the resulting triangle that lies on the plane that was to be constructed.
