Indian Maiden Bitters Bottle

G.A. Spangenberg

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a tall, sculpted bottle shaped like a figure of a woman wearing a headdress and layered clothing, standing upright as the central and largest object. The color palette consists mainly of brown and beige tones, highlighting the ornate details and curvature of the figure. The figure is depicted in a three-quarter view slightly turned to the right, with the left side presenting more detail, while it stands in the center against a plain, off-white background.
