Penny Bank: Pig

Charles Henning

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sculpture or model of a pig as the main object on a plain background. The pig is primarily brown and tan with some darker spots and a touch of red on its mouth. The background is very light, almost off-white. The pig is centered, facing right, with the name "C. Hennig" printed lightly in the lower left corner.
