Pitcher

Beverly Chichester

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large, brown ceramic pitcher with a wide body, a curved handle, and a narrow spout at the top. The pitcher has decorative ridges near the top and swirling patterns on its main body. The color palette consists mainly of earthy browns with shades of rich chocolate and lighter tan tones, and a hint of a greenish hue on the inside neck of the pitcher. The pitcher is centrally positioned with its handle facing to the right, while its front is directly visible.
