Wall Pocket for Flowers

Gertrude Lemberg

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a detailed drawing of an ornate, cup-like object with scalloped edges and intricate floral and possibly animal-like designs carved into its surface. The color palette consists of muted browns, golds, and beiges. Positioned centrally on a plain, off-white background, the object is oriented with its narrow, pointed end at the bottom and the open, scalloped edge at the top.
