Large, solid wood studio easel with a double upright, equipped with a central rack and pinion system for adjusting the height of the canvas support.
Suitable for large formats.

This type of easel was used in painters' studios and art schools for working on large canvases.
The structure rests on an articulated rear leg, allowing for tilt adjustment and ensuring overall stability.
The canvas support slides vertically thanks to the rack and pinion mechanism operated by a handle, a system characteristic of professional easels from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
