Annie B. Johnston

The image shows a large cylindrical ceramic jug with a single handle positioned slightly off-center at the top right. The jug has a textured surface dotted with small dark spots. The color palette consists of earthy browns fading to a lighter tan at the top with hints of grayish shading. The jug's body dominates the image, and the handle is curving at the top right. The illustration is set against a plain light background.
