Whiskey Flask

G.A. Spangenberg

National Gallery of Art

This painting shows a brown glass bottle against a plain beige background. The shape of the bottle is bulbous, with a round base at the bottom tapering up towards the thin neck at the top. The front and back sides are flat, giving it the appearance of a flask. It is positioned centrally with its neck extending upwards, with the front side slightly turned to the right. The bottle has a reflective surface and appears empty.
