Definition easel

Etymology

Borrowed from Dutch ezel (“donkey; easel”), from Middle Dutch esel (“donkey”); (compare German Esel (“donkey”), cognate with Old English eosol (“donkey”)), from Proto-Germanic *asiluz, from Latin asellus (“young ass or small donkey”), diminutive of asinus (“ass, donkey”), ultimately from an unknown source in Asia Minor. Essentially, the stand that a painting is placed on is being likened to a donkey carrying a burden; compare horse (“a frame with legs used to support something”), as in clotheshorse and sawhorse.

Noun

easel (plural easels)

  1. An upright frame, typically on three legs, for displaying or supporting something, such as an artist's canvas.
