Massey Hall

Toronto's Massey Hall was built in 1894, and has hosted the likes of Maria Callas, Pavarotti, Winston Churchill, Thelonius Monk, Neil Young, and the Dalai Lama. It is still a vital venue today, now dwarfed by buildings of much younger vintage.
Below is a painting of the Hall's 'business end'.

I needed a proper studio easel. My wallet disagreed. We compromised by using scrap wood from around the garage, with wallet pitching in $40 for casters and other hardware.
