Drinking Cup

John Matulis

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a green drinking cup with a handle on a metallic-looking plate. The cup has a textured surface with hints of brown and dark green, giving it an antique appearance, while the plate has a silvery-gray tone. The cup is positioned slightly off-center to the right, and the plate beneath it is visible around the base. The background is a pale beige color, and there is text at the top that reads "DRINKING CUP LATE 18th CENTURY."
