Eardley Jar

Clyde L. Cheney

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large, cylindrical brown pottery jar with a horizontal lip near the top and a small handle attached to one side. The color palette consists of earthy browns with shading to depict the roundness and texture of the jar. The jar is centered against a plain, light background that appears slightly textured. The light source comes from the left, casting a shadow on the right side of the jar.
