Stoneware Jug

Edgar L. Pearce

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large ceramic jug with a single handle on the right side and a small spout at the top. The jug is depicted in shades of brown, with highlights and shadows suggesting a smooth, glazed surface. It is centrally positioned within a rectangular area that includes a small diagram in the upper left corner showing a top view of the jug, and a grid with numbers at the bottom. The color palette is muted, with earthy browns and a neutral background. The handle curves gracefully from the top of the jug to its midsection.
