This is a drawing of a street lantern design. The drawing features two main views: one is a full view of the entire lamppost, and the other is a close-up of the lantern. The full view shows a tall post topped with a geometric lantern enclosure and a decorative finial. The close-up shows the lantern's design, including the burner or light source at the center, its hexagonal structure with clear panes, and its clean lines.
