Flowers in a Pitcher

Amerikanische Grafik 1869–1877, anni Settanta dell’Ottocento

This painting shows a white ceramic jug filled with a bouquet of wide green leaves and a few delicate pink and white flowers. The jug is decorated with thin blue lines creating floral patterns. It is positioned centrally on a flat, light brown surface, with the leaves and flowers extending above it against a plain beige background. The surface below the pitcher is glossy and reflective, and the pitcher casts a light brown shadow.
