Whiskey Glass

Chris Makrenos

National Gallery of Art

Two transparent drinking glasses with noticeable chips at the rim are depicted in the image. The glass on the left features a drawing of a house with windows and a circular detail, while the glass on the right displays a less distinct structure resembling a house with rounded elements. The color palette consists of subtle tones, mainly soft grays and off-whites, giving the image a minimalistic and subdued appearance. Positioned against a plain background, the glass on the left sits slightly to the left of center, and the one on the right is placed symmetrically towards the right, maintaining an equal distance between the two.
